Struggles in loss
David generated two shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Wednesday's 2-1 defeat to Switzerland.
Analysis: David failed to get anything going throughout Wednesday's loss, he created a pair of half-chances and failed to put a shot on goal. It's been a mixed bag for David at the World Cup, but he's still Canada's talisman heading into the knockout stage. David will need to lead this team if they want to go on any sort of miracle run.
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.
Analysis: 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.
