Promise David scored a late goal for Canada, which took second place in Group B behind the Swiss and earned a spot in the knockout round for the first time in its history. Switzerland will face a third-place finisher on July 2 in Vancouver in the round of 32. Canada needed a win or a draw to finish at the top of the group and stay on home soil, but instead will travel to Inglewood, California, for its next game on Sunday against the second-place finisher in Group B.

Bosnia-Herzegovina eliminated Qatar and boosted its chances of advancing at the World Cup with a 3-1 victory.

Switzerland beat Canada 2-1 and they top Group B. Couple of good chances for Canada towards the end of the match but Kobel was able to save them all. Canada finish second and qualified for the knockouts for the first time!

Another header from a Canadian player but Kobel is taking no chances. Catches it safely and ends the attack!

Six added minutes and Canada need just one goal. Cornelius had the chance but his header was just wide!

Bosnia and Herzegovina extend their lead and they are now 3-1 against Qatar!

The momentum is completely with Canada right now. They are desperately looking for a goal as the draw will mean that they will top the group. Big 5-10 mins in this match.

Canada scores! Promise David scores and Canada are dreaming again! Can they get another one and tie this game?

A brilliant chance for Canada but Elvedi had other plans. A last-ditch tackle by the Switzerland defender and he has saved a certain goal there!

As things stand right now, Switzerland will quality as the group topper while Canada will finish second with a superior goal difference. Bosnia and Herzegovina will be third if they beat Qatar but will have a great chance of qualification.

Manzambi scores and Switzerland have made it 2-0. Embolo shielded the ball well and provided the perfect pass for Manzambi. His shot was good but it was ultimately a goalkeeping error that led to the goal.

A quick start by Switzerland as the cutback found Vargas in a space without any defenders and the finish was just perfect. Switzerland 1-0 up and it is time for Canada to fight back.

Ruben Vargas scores and Switzerland have taken the lead. It took them just 37 seconds in the second half to find the breakthrough!

It is half-time and the score is 0-0. Canada defended well but Switzerland will be extremely unhappy with their misses. They have chances to take the lead but the finishing was just not there.

Bosnia and Herzegovina are 2-0 ahead in their match against Qatar as Kerim Alajbegovic opened the scoring and Sultan Albrake scored an own goal.

Yellow cards for Xhaka and Larin. Xhaka was about to take his free-kick when Larin moved the ball. The Switzerland footballer ended up hitting Larin's leg. The referee called them both and showed yellow cards to both footballers.

Switzerland have found themselves at least 3 times with just the goalkeeper to beat. However, it was off-side on one occasion and on the other two times, the players were not able to find the finish. On the other hand, Canada are also not sitting back and we can expect a competitive match.

A well-taken free kick and De Fougerolles had the chance to take a shot. However, the attempt was a rather weak one and was collected easily by Kobel.

Massive chance for Embolo and the Canada keeper pulled off a brilliant save. The striker had only the keepr to beat but was unable to find the back of the net!

The match is just 10 minutes old but both teams have committed a number of fouls. It has been a tough midfield fight and both teams are not leaving their ground.

This has been a somewhat even match till now. Both teams have shown that they will not be sitting back but no proper chances as of now.

The match is underway! A huge occasion for co-hosts Canada who will be looking to reach the knockouts of the World Cup for the first time ever. Switzerland also did not have good outings in the last few editions and will look to top the group.
