Canada are making just their second-ever World Cup bow as Alphonso Davies and Co strive for success

Canada are making their second-ever World Cup bow in Qatar. They qualified for the 2022 tournament after beating Jamaica in Toronto. Sportsmail explains how they can do well in the tournament.  

Canada's last World Cup was disappointing. They lost all three games and scored zero goals. The collapse of the North American Soccer League meant that the current squad had to overcome problems before they arrived in Mexico. John Herdman's team is preparing for their second-ever World cup in Qatar. Their first game is against Belgium on November 20th. The tournament starts on 20 November in Al Khor. 32 national teams will gather in the Middle East for the tournament. Canada's first match is in northern coastal city of AlKhor against Ecuador. It's been 13,316 days since Englishman Tony Waiters led Canada to their first major tournament, beating Honduras to qualify.

Canada are making their second-ever World Cup bow in Qatar. They are playing in a group with Belgium, Croatia and Morocco. Belgium are the favourites to win the group. Croatia are a serious threat to Canada's ambitions of advancing out of their group in the World cup. Morocco are more opportunistic and Canada needs to beat them to advance out. Belgium's golden generation is playing their final international match. It could be their last international game. Canada are looking forward to playing with their young stars. John Herdman needs his players to be calm and composed. He needs them not to get carried away.

Canada are making their second-ever World Cup bow in Qatar. They take on Belgium, Croatia and Morocco in Group F. Their squad is made up of some of European clubs brightest talents. Canada have already beaten Belgium and Croatia. Canada's World cup campaign starts on November 20.
