Panama's World Cup on the brink ahead of England clash

Panama face England on Saturday night at MetLife Stadium with their World Cup campaign on the line, and the picture is grim. Two matches, two 1–0 defeats, first to Ghana, then to Croatia, leaves Thomas Christiansen's side anchored to the bottom of Group L (1). Jose Cordoba, Carlos Harvey, and Cecilio Waterman have yet to find the breakthrough that would keep the knockout-stage door from slamming shut. England await as the group's heavyweights, and Panama need more than the stoppage-time consolation they managed in the opener.
