A dominant performance would be preferable but I'd take a 1-0 win just to guarantee qualification to the group stages at this point. Many expected this England team to fail spectacularly - myself included - it would be great to see them prove everyone wrong.
Day 11: England vs Panama, Japan vs Senegal and Poland vs Colombia

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Easy win for England, although I don't like the formation. Can't wait for game against Belgium 
Lingard could be more clinical too - a lot more to be fair.
I normally hate international football. But for a few weeks every couple of years, I become a mouth breathing Ingerlund fan.
Come on!
Come on!
He’s lost in this system. Let’s see how he gets on today but Rashford or Vardy would probably be better fits.
I'd love to see Rashford start but if he does I don't see anyone on that bench that can make an impact like he can.
Love me some Rio. He needs to be a regular on the BBC.
I don't like all this confidence. Feels odd.
I don't think he's a good fit in this system at all.
So there are no water breaks. Is that a good idea?
Theyre moaning about the weather but england will have the majority of the ball anyway!

You can guarantee that if it all goes to pot the first thing people will be complaining about is all the narking about behind the scenes with those inflatable pony things and that.
I think it's 'pleasant surprise' rather than 'confidence'. We're playing good football for the first time since 1996.
He's a wide player, always has been, and this England play without wide players. For all the talk of a brave new England, they're still shoving their best players into random positions to get them on the team sheet.
Is there any City player tearing it up at the WC? System players
Kane has a lovely singing voice.
C'mon Panama!
Completely disagree - he’s poor on the left wing, plays his best football either on the right or as a ten.
You're going to win the WC.
There's about three different speeds to sing it at apparently
Rashford's brother playing for Panama?
That Panama national anthem is proper good.
Stones instead of Smalling, the mind baffles.
God save the Queen? Is the queen not the most safest person in Britain?
Come on, Panama!
Can’t believe sterling has got in again.
Rashford better start against Belgium.
Rashford better start against Belgium.
A bit of harmonising.
It's working, then.
For free kicks do Panama build a wall or a canal?
I'm backing the Shovel-faced Assassin to have this done before half-time.
Oh good, Danny Murphy.
Is it goal difference before H2H in case of a tie?
Should be a penalty
Thats a pen
That was an elbow.
Penalty?
Goal difference
VAR?
elbow to the face for Lingard why is the Panama player on the floor , red card for me.
