First World Cup hat-trick for Canada David recorded three goals on eight shots (five on target) in Thursday's 6-0 win over Qatar.

Impact David was a standout player Thursday as Canada throttled Qatar, scoring three of their six goals. He would begin in the 29th minute for the second goal of the match, then scoring two more in stoppage time of the first and second half. This is not only a great match for the forward, but a great match for Canadian history, as it is their first World Cup hat-trick, their first World Cup win, and inching closer to their first-ever qualification for the knockouts. David will continue to be a key part of the team, showing his true strength against Qayar after a quiet opener.

Struggles up top David recorded three shots (one on goal) in Friday's 1-1 draw versus Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Impact David had a day to forget leading the line, struggling to get much done and putting just one of his shots on goal. The forward couldn't get involved in the attack and got comfortably outclassed throughout most of the match. Cyle Larin looked far more more effective off the bench than David did in the starting XI, and could take the starting job if David doesn't show some form.

Major factor for Canada David is likely to start at forward for Canada and play a major role at the 2026 World Cup.

Impact David is entering the World Cup with decent expectations as he is set to lead Canada at forward for the tournament. The forward comes in following a decent first season with Juventus, notching six goals and four assists in his 35 appearances (20 starts) in league play. He will then look to build on his profile more as the World Cup kicks off, likely to be the primary goal scorer for the team, although he will play alongside Cyle Larin as well. David will already see plenty of opportunities at net and will need to if Canada wants to make it out of the group stage, also seeing some added value due to his penalty duties for the team.

Fires one shot in Como game David (groin) committed one foul and had one off-target shot and two passes in 16 minutes in Saturday's 2-0 loss to Como.

David has scored and assisted once in his last five appearances, adding four shots (two on target), four chances created and one cross (zero accurate). His streak of tilts with at lest one key pass stopped at three due to his scarce playing time in this one.

Impact David will go through a fitness test on game day to determine his status and, eventually, how many minutes he can handle. Weston McKennie led the line versus Galatasaray, but he might be needed in other roles because of some absences in this one, potentially benefiting Lois Openda, Filip Kostic or Jeremie Boga.

Ruled out for Galatasaray tilt David won't be available Tuesday because of a groin issue, Sky Italy reported.

Impact David didn't make the squad list because of a muscular issue and will be examined in the next few days. Lois Openda, Kenan Yildiz or Weston McKennie will spearhead the frontline, leading to more minutes for other wingers or midfielders in the last two cases, since they usually play in different positions.
