Canada secured its first-ever men's World Cup victory by crushing Qatar 6-0 in Vancouver, topping Group B. Midfielder Ismaël Koné was stretchered off with a broken leg following a brutal tackle, ending his tournament. Qatar was reduced to nine men after VAR upgraded a challenge to a straight red card. Coach Jesse Marsch called Koné's loss significant, though doctors expect a full recovery. Canada now prepares for a crucial clash against Switzerland.
