Panama (0-0-2) vs. England (1-1-0) — Group L Match Preview
Panama and England meet at New York New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford in a Group L finale that revisits their 2018 group-stage meeting, when England won 6-1 and Felipe Baloy scored Panama’s first-ever World Cup goal. England top the group on 4 points having scored 4 goals, while Panama sit bottom on 0 points and are still searching for their first goal of this tournament. Harry Kane leads the England line as the country’s all-time leading scorer, fresh off a remarkable Bundesliga season with Bayern Munich in which he scored 36 goals, and his finishing is the most direct threat Panama will have to manage. Panama are no pushovers, though, having qualified unbeaten from CONCACAF and reached the 2023 Gold Cup and 2025 Nations League finals under Thomas Christiansen, the longest-serving coach in the country’s history. Jude Bellingham gives England a midfielder who scored 6 goals and added 4 assists in LA LIGA for Real Madrid this season, exactly the kind of late runner who pulls a packed defence apart. For England a win seals top spot in Group L and builds momentum under Thomas Tuchel as they chase a first major trophy since 1966, while for Panama, ending their goal drought against the same opponent that overwhelmed them eight years ago would be progress of its own.

Players to Watch: Panama vs. England
Panama
Ismael Diaz — Forward. Panama’s sharpest attacker was the top scorer at the 2025 Gold Cup, and he carries the goal threat for a side still hunting its first strike of the tournament. Against an England defence that can be pulled out of shape, his movement off the shoulder of the last man is Panama’s likeliest opening.
Adalberto Carrasquilla — Midfielder. A former CONCACAF Player of the Year, Carrasquilla is the creative engine in Panama’s midfield and the player they trust to slow the game down and pick a pass when England press. His ability to retain the ball under pressure is central to whether Panama can build anything beyond hopeful clearances.
Anibal Godoy — Midfielder. Panama’s captain holds a national record with 159 caps and sits in front of the defence as the screen that protects it, adding 2 assists across 10 MLS starts this season. In a match where Panama will spend long spells without the ball, his reading of danger is what keeps the score manageable.
England
Harry Kane — Forward. England’s captain and all-time leading scorer arrives off a stunning Bayern Munich season, having scored 36 goals in the Bundesliga off 119 shots. He is the most clinical finisher on the pitch by some distance, and a settled England side will look to feed him early and often.
Jude Bellingham — Midfielder. The Real Madrid midfielder posted 6 goals and 4 assists in LA LIGA this season, the output of a player who arrives in the penalty area as naturally as he dictates from deeper. His timing into the box is how England turn sustained possession into clear chances.
Dan Burn — Defender. The towering Newcastle centre-back contributed 1 goal and 2 assists across 25 Premier League starts this season and gives England a commanding aerial presence in both boxes. His height makes him a weapon at set pieces and a reassuring last line against Panama’s direct play.
