A disappointing appearance for Jonathan David: a missed opportunity and he was substituted in the 61st minute
Jonathan David's appearance in his first match at the World Cup was unsuccessful, as he missed a clear scoring opportunity and was substituted after 61 minutes.
Jonathan David's appearance at the World Cup lasted more than an hour, but it was not as expected. While Canada was trailing 1-0 to Bosnia, coach Jesse Marsch decided to replace the Juventus striker, bringing on Promise David instead.
David gave a disappointing performance, especially when he had the opportunity to score a certain goal in the first half, but he was unable to threaten goalkeeper Vasiliy with a weak sentence.

In addition, his contribution was limited to some defensive roles and efforts away from the penalty area, without any influence in decisive moments or leading the team’s attack.
These poor performances prompted Marsh to decide to substitute after an hour of play, in an attempt to increase the team's offensive weight and reopen the match, which Canada was seeking to change the result of after Jovo Lukic's goal in the first half. For David, who was one of the most anticipated names in the Canadian national team, the start of the World Cup was an experience that is difficult to forget.
