It was a special day for Juventus Men's First Team star Jonathan David, who is proving to be a key player for co-hosts Canada at the 2026 Men's FIFA World Cup.
>The Canadian national team’s No. 10 capped off the 6-0 rout of Qatar in their second Group B match with a hat trick: the first came with a perfectly executed right-footed finish after a rebound; the second saw him tap in from close range after the ball was deflected by goalkeeper Mahmud Abunada; and finally, in the closing minutes, he struck from the heart of Qatar’s penalty area.
>It was the best way to celebrate Canada’s historic first victory in a World Cup finals match, making David the first Serie A player to score a hat trick in this competition since 1998 and the first from a host nation since 1966.
>A night to remember: congratulations, Jonathan!
