Group L wraps up its group stage on Saturday, June 27 with two simultaneous matches that could reshape the final standings. At MetLife Stadium in New York, Panama look to end their World Cup campaign on a high against an England side that must win to secure first place outright.
Match Context
Panama close out their 2026 World Cup participation having shown real improvement despite two consecutive narrow defeats. The Canaleros fell to both Ghana and Croatia by a single goal in each match, demonstrating genuine competitive quality even without the result to show for it. With elimination already confirmed, the June 27 fixture represents their final opportunity on the biggest stage — a chance to earn their first point and score their first goal of this tournament.
England arrive as group leaders on four points, but their campaign has been far from convincing. A strong opening win — 4-2 over Croatia — was followed by a flat 0-0 draw against Ghana that raised doubts about the team's consistency. With Ghana also on four points, goal difference could prove decisive in the final standings. A win secures first place with no need to monitor the other match; anything less means England will be watching the Ghana vs Croatia result with anxiety.

Why Watch at a Fan Zone?
