Canada's men's national team made history on Sunday by securing their first ever point in a World Cup tournament. In a match against Bosnia-Herzegovina, the Canadians fought back to earn a 1-1 draw.

The crucial goal was scored by substitute Cyle Larin, whose strike leveled the game and prevented a defeat. This point marks a milestone for Canadian football, as the team had previously failed to register any points in World Cup appearances.

Bosnia-Herzegovina had taken the lead, but Larin's clinical finish ensured Canada would not leave empty-handed. The result provides a boost for the team as they continue their campaign.
