Experience Could Play in Panama’s Favor

Many around the world believe this Panama squad is much better than when they made their World Cup debut back in 2018, with ESPN’s Anish Anand providing more context.

“Panama are a better team than they were when they made their World Cup debut in 2018. The squad has been together for some time with right back Michael Amir Murillo, who plays for Besiktas, being their main man. They will also bank on the creativity of Adalberto Carrasquilla and there’s veteran Aníbal Godoy, the captain of the team who will make his presence known in the midfield.”

Panama will play its matches in Group L. The Panamanians open their World Cup on June 17 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, against Ghana. Six days later, they take on Croatia in the same stadium. For their final group stage match, they travel to East Rutherford, New Jersey, to take on one-time champions England on June 27. The two group winners and the eight best third-placed teams from each group will advance to the next stage.

Panama Schedule

• June 17 – Ghana (7 pm EST)
• June 23 – Croatia (7 pm EST)
• June 27 – England (5 pm EST)
