because the ref sucks. the goal they scored off the corner didnt even go out the back for a corner it went out at the sideline.
FIFA World Cup 2018 - Group G (Belgium, Panama, Tunisia, England)

Did they need to win by 2 goals or something?
Panama are pretty woeful. USA should be kicking themselvs that they couldnt qualify ahead of them
Panama was less woeful than USMNT in WC qualifying. That’s how bad the state of things in US soccer are.
Perhaps. At least not wait until the death to win it. They needed to look like a team that is a threat once they get out of the group, and they didn't.
ETA: I partly said that England were not good enough to imply that I wasn't blaming the ref for their struggles. England should have been better, and the crap ref wasn't really to blame for that.
I agree they didn't look like a threat in game 1, but.... it's game one. Spain lost their first game before going on to win the Cup, and Germany tied their 2nd and looked like shit against Ghana last World Cup. There's still plenty of time for each team to get better and fix mistakes. These hot takes are nuts. They've essentially clinched their passage to the next round with this win.
That was a foul too, only thing I can think as to why he didn't call it was advantage. It was rightfully given but they cocked it up.
They had about 4 open goals that they had missed and Tunisia has no business being in that game with a remotely decent team
and then...
whoa whoa whoa, panama lost their first game but they still have time to get better and fix mistakes. I mean look at spain, they lost their first game and went on to win the world cup. Panama 2018 WC Champs, you heard it here first.
Dammit
Rimil , hat off to you there lol
Damn. I thought England looked pretty good - as good as I’ve seen them in a World Cup.
Granted, they only got two funky goals (one by Kane, one claimed by him even though it was scored on the hit before), but they created chances.
They were never put under real pressure.
They aren’t going to win it. But they could easily draw against Belgium.
Harry Maguire is terrible, btw. What a donkey.

I believe what he meant was
this new forum meme gonna be
"He must have died while dictating it!"
Because it's a reasonable comparison to put a dedicated striker for a top 10 team against a guy coming back too early from injury to play out of position for a third tier squad with practically no help?
I'm sure Kane approves and would mug it up. Of course, don't expect him to be intelligible when he speaks about it.
