- Qatar was reduced to nine players after Homan Ahmed and Assim Madibo received red cards; a tackle by Madibo resulted in a serious leg injury to Ismael Kone, who was stretched off the field.
- Cyle Larin opened scoring in the 16th minute, followed by David's right-footed volley in the 29th; Nathan Saliba added a free kick goal in the 64th minute, and Mohamed Manai conceded an own goal in the 75th.
- Canada Prime Minister Mark Carney attended the match with FIFA President Gianni Infantino; captain Alphonso Davies and Bombito remained available as substitutes despite missing the team's opening draw against Bosnia-Herzegovina.
- The victory positions Canada for the knockout round, while Qatar continues seeking its first World Cup win after losing all group matches four years ago as the host nation.
