Both Tunisia and Panama are looking to get their first win of the World Cup following two group defeats.

Tunisia had a better game against England than against Belgium. The North African side managed two goals during their 5-2 loss to Belgium and also a goal against England during the group stage opener thanks to Ferjani Sassi’s penalty.

Panama are coming into this game on the back of a heavy defeat at the hands of England. Panama scored their first ever World Cup goal in that game, which came when Felipe Baloy following Ricardo Ávila’s free kick into the penalty area.

There's very little intensity here from England, Danny Welbeck is about to come on and Southgate must have decided that an equaliser isn't that important but England are playing very sluggishly, mush like the England of old
