There shouldn't be any Europeans in the Panama squad

some of them are good enough to play in Europe... their agents are just stupid. And some of them just don't like discipline.

Baloy could have made the transfer to Europe I think.

Yeah, he has been a solid defender all his career. He was once linked with Arsenal and other european clubs that I can't remember atm.

Honduras 2-2 Mexico http://www.mysoccerp...-2-2-highlights

Jamaica 1-1 Panama http://www.fasthighl...ualif-27812.htm

USA 1-0 Costa Rica http://www.mysoccerp...-1-0-highlights

 

*Look at the pic above... It's completely unfair to the rest of the teams that USA plays under those conditions... That game was terrible. They had to suspend that game just like Russia and Northern Ireland did. Oh but just because it's super USA, they can't do that. We don't even get snow ffs!

 

*Mexico was winning 0-2 but then Honduras tied in 3 minutes

 

*Panama did a good job. We generally don't tend to play that well when visiting but the team did a good job. Unfortunately, we didn't win. Jamaica scored the goal and like 1-2 shots but they didn't do anything else. Panama could have win this game.

 

Positions should be this way:

1) Honduras 4 points

2) USA 3 points

3) Jamaica 2 points

3) Mexico 2 points

3) Panama 2 points

4) Costa Rica 1 point

 

*Panama plays on Tuesday against Honduras. Panama at home. We have to win this.

*Mexico vs USA (I think Mexico at home)

*Jamaica vs Costa Rica (Don't remember who will play at home but I assume it's Costa Rica since they have done 2 consecutive visits).

 

*Just read that Costa Rica wants FIFA to repeat the game.

Costa Rica 2-0 Jamaica

 

Panama 2-0 Honduras

 

Mexico 0-0 USA

*Panama's performance was bad although they won. Honduras attacked a lot, maybe the goal at the 1st minute made Panama defend the rest of the game... still happy with the win. Panama should have had 7-9 points instead of 5. (Winning 2-0 vs Costa Rica but then tied 2-2 and the 1-1 vs Jamaica in which Jamaica didn't do anything else apart from the goal they scored).

 

*Mexico seems to create goal opportunities but they aren't getting them in.

 

Positions!

1) Panama 5 points

2) Costa Rica 4 points

3) USA 4 points

4) Honduras 4 points

5) Mexico 3 points

6) Jamaica 2 points

You know America isn't that snowy all the time don't you SD?

[Harry]

Looking extremely close, how confident are you that Panama will qualify SD?

You know United States of America isn't that snowy all the time don't you SD?

Fixed quote for accuracy of the country. Yeah I know. It's still wrong what they did.

 

Looking extremely close, how confident are you that Panama will qualify SD?

I think the additional 4 points we didn't get vs Costa Rica & Jamaica will have a big impact. All the games are difficult and as you can see, 1 draw, 1 win and 1 loss can change everything. I'm not so confident because of those 4 additional 4 points we didn't get. Panama is leading the table yes but there's no space for mistakes and that's something we always do (mistakes). Panama has the squad to qualify though and they have shown they can qualify. Considering 3.5/6 qualify, then yes, I am confident (not very confident ) Panama can go for the 3rd spot. Mexico has had a bad start so that's even better!

 

Our next games are:

- Mexico (Panama at home) - I think we can get 1 point here

- USA (Panama will visit) - 1 point too.

- Costa Rica (Panama will visit). - 3 points

 

*That's 5 points out of 9. Not bad at all. And also, it will depend on what the other teams do.

 

From 1 to 5, how confident I am? 5 is absolutely confident, 4 is very confident so I'm 3.5. I'm a little bit more than a "regular confidence"
