Panamska nogometna reprezentanca je v drugem krogu skupinskega dela svetovnega prvenstva v Rusiji visoko izgubila proti Angliji (1:6).
Visoko zmago angleških nogometašev, ki so si že zagotovili nastop v osmini finala, je zasenčil nenavaden poskus prefriganih Panamcev, ki so poskušali do znižanja zaostanka priti na nedovoljen način.
Angleži so se v 22. minuti srečanja veselili drugega zadetka, ki ga je z bele točke dosegel Harry Kane. Medtem ko so varovanci Garetha Southgata proslavljali zadetek, je eden od panamskih nogometašev z žogo stekel proti sredini in poskušal organizirati napad, čeprav Angležev sploh ni bilo na zelenici.
Žogo je podal soigralcu in skupaj sta stekla v napadalno polovico, kjer bi morala za zadetek premagati samo še angleškega vratarja Jordana Pickforda. Napad je nato prekinila sodniška piščalka, klavrn poskus panamskega nogometaša pa v nobenem primeru ne bi ogrozil angleškega čuvaja mreže.
Čeprav je bila odločitev deležna protestov panamske klopi, je sodnik ravnal pravilno, saj je bila akcija v nasprotju z nogometnimi pravili.

Panama genuinely tried to kick off and score while England were still celebrating after scoring yesterday. How are you at a World Cup not knowing the rules of the game 🤦🏻♂️

As England celebrated Harry Kane scoring, Panama players picked the ball up to race back to the centre circle 🤔

They then ran through on goal in an attempt to score. Pickford didn't know what to do! 😅😂 https://t.co/LntXldLLP1
