The FIFA World Cup Group F match between Belgium and Canada is scheduled for Wednesday 23 November at 21:00 at the Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium in Al Rayyan and will be broadcast live on TVR 1.

Belgium, who have won their group at each of the last two finals, are heavy favorites to clash with Canada, making their second appearance at the World Cup since Mexico (1986), where they lost all their matches without even scoring.

The Belgian national team successfully qualified from the previous group with Wales, the Czech Republic, Estonia and Belarus with six wins and two draws, and the team’s top scorer was Romelu Lukaku (5 goals).

Unfortunately for him, but especially for the Red Devils, Romelu Lukaku will miss Belgium’s first two World Cup games in Qatar, against Canada and Morocco, after injuring his left hip.

In the Nations League, however, Belgium finished 2nd in a group won by the Netherlands in League A and failed to reach the semi-finals of the competition (Final 4).

Belgium, with Spaniard Roberto Martinez on the bench since 2016, lost their final warm-up match 1-2 to Egypt on November 18 despite ending their 17-match friendly unbeaten run.

Canada unexpectedly qualified for the World Cup in Qatar by winning a tough group that included, among others, Mexico, the United States and Costa Rica.

Coach John Herdman, who has been in charge since 2018 after almost eight years coaching the Canadian women’s national team, has several soccer stars in his team, such as Alphonso Davies (Bayern Munich), Jonathan David (Lille), Steven Eustaquio (FC Porto) . or Atiba Hutchinson (Besiktas).

Canada played four friendlies before the start of the 2022 World Cup: 2-0 with Qatar, 0-2 with Uruguay, 2-2 with Bahrain and 1-2 with Japan.

The two teams had met only once before, in a friendly in 1989, when Belgium beat Canada 2-0.
