Canada thrash 9-man Qatar for first-ever World Cup win

DUBAI: It took them two matches on home soil to get the result, but for the thousands of home fans packed into the BC Place stadium in Vancouver, Canada’s first-ever win at the World Cup was well worth the wait. A comprehensive 6-0 win over 9-man Qatar catapulted the host nation to the top of Group B on 4 points, ahead of Switzerland on goal difference. With just one point, Qatar are bottom of the group, trailing Bosnia and Herzegovina, who earlier lost 4-1 to the Swiss, on goal difference.
