England secured a 2-0 victory over Panama at the FIFA World Cup 2026, finishing top of Group L and advancing to the knockout stage. After a frustrating first half, Jude Bellingham broke the deadlock in the 62nd minute by volleying home Bukayo Saka’s corner.
Four minutes later, Bellingham set up Harry Kane, whose header marked his record-breaking 11th World Cup goal, surpassing Gary Lineker’s tally.
Panama created several chances but failed to score, ending their campaign without a goal. England dominated the closing stages, with goalkeeper Orlando Mosquera making several saves to keep the score respectable.
