The Panama player with the dyed blonde hair has just refused to mark on 2 of the 4 goals and then stands there looking at his teammates.

Unreal that we didn't qualify over this side.

God save the queen! This is beautiful!

I might sub out Sterling, Lingard, and Kane at halftime to keep Panama from doing something dirty in the second half.

If you had "John Stones, brace, 40'", please collect your winnings at the second window.

What a bunch of scumbags. Good for England for embarrassing them.

If the english coach is smart he'd do this at half time for sure

Southgate needs to get his stars off. Panama is going to goon this up for the entire 2H.

Panama has a real complaint here. They are at a competitive disadvantage without a craptastic CONCACAF referee. These PKs and calls are not something they are used to.

It'd be amazing if it was in the knockout round. With Group H being such a hot mess, I'm not sure there's any advantage to being #1 or #2. I wouldn't be surprised to see several stars get some rest.

That, and don't even bother to attack. Kill the clock and get off the field. Don't let anyone get injured.

I'd take England or Belgium over any of the Group H sides

It's also amazing to watch Blas Perez yell at England players and accuse them of diving. If your entire career is built on diving, cheap shots and poaching then please quit making yourself look like a fool.

After going to a few Dynamo v Arabe Unido games this is exactly what I expected from Panama.

That won't count. Kane was offside and it hit hm.

Huh. Sure looked off.

Best thing to have happened to England was Fat Sam getting drunk and talking about taking transfer kickbacks.

1) We also didn't qualify over a side that was, in theory, worse than this one.

2) In 2026, it is within the realm of possibility that there could be no less than five CONCACRAP teams in the World Cup that are worse than Panama.

First goal scored by a CONCACAF team that isn't Mexico.

CONCACAF is the BDF of soccer.

That graphic. "If result holds Belgium and England advance to R16." Yeah. That's a big IF.

Allerdyce is one of the most fascinating figures in English soccer. Ive been reading a history book on the EPL called "The Mixer." Despite him being such a strong proponent of old school, ugly, route one ball, he alongside Wenger revolutionized the way teams trained and prepared.

True but an Allerdyce coached England would not have scored 6 on Panama today.

Just makes more apparent how much of a train wreck USMNT soccer has become. A travesty, but then, mismanagement tends to have that effect.

At least US soccer made major and big changes from status quo...you know appointing #2 as #1

Oh, I'm an Everton fan and couldnt be more happy that he's not gonna be there anymore. He's just crazy interesting.

What I hate about this opinion is it ignored the World Cups prior to this. You know, where we sent 2 or even all 3 teams through to knockout rounds.

The BDF normally gets one playoff team but isn't competitive in games that matter, so it seems about right to me
