Switzerland beat Canada 3-1 in Vancouver to top Group B and send Canada home with a curious World Cup story. Canada beat Qatar 6-0 in their second match in one of the tournament's most emphatic results. Then they lost to Switzerland 3-1 and went out. Switzerland who opened with a draw against Qatar and beat Bosnia 4-1 in their second match finish as group winners. Bosnia are in third and checking their goal difference nervously alongside several other teams. Canada's six-goal demolition of Qatar now stands as a glorious footnote to an ultimately disappointing campaign. The host nation going out at the group stage will sting. Their fans were magnificent throughout.

Beating Qatar 6-0 and then going out at the group stage is a very specific kind of World Cup disappointment
It's not a bug, it's a feature
