England attack too slow
As expected England have got most of the ball, but they’re too slow and predictable to really trouble their opponents.
Panama, meanwhile, are defending well and are also quick on the break.
Pickford with the save!
Panama are quickest on the ball and Rodriguez blasts a fierce shot that Pickford does well to turn away.
Drinks break
Boos all round as the referee calls a hydration break, which really does feel a little odd given the weather in New Jersey.
Saka blocked again
A lovely Kane pass finds Rogers in the box, who pops it over to Saka, but bodies get in the way before the Arsenal winger can get his shot away.
2018’s demolition job
The last time the teams met at a World Cup, it ended in a mauling.
It’s looking unlikey we’ll get a similar scoreline this time.
Panama with half a chance
A quick Panama counter sends Rodriguez one-on-one with Konsa on the edge of the England box, but he trips over the ball.
Saka’s shot saved
The Arsenal winger does one of his runs from the right and fires a low shot at the near-post, but the keeper is on it.
Rashford looking lively
Another good run by the Barcelona forward leads to a corner for England, but Saka’s low ball into the box is easy prey for the goallie.
Earlier, England had a throw-in overturned because they were too slow to take it, as per the new rules.
Rashford close!
A blistering drive into the bottom corner is parried away by the Panama keeper.
Tuchel fumes as Kane loses possession
Harry Kane overhits his ball wide to Saka and the coach is not impressed.
First shot for Panama!
Tomas Rodriguez tries his luck from outside the box but it’s no trouble for Pickford.
We’re off!
England wearing red shirts and, unusually, black shorts, get the ball rolling.
Panama are in white.
The teams are out
The teams are out at the New York New Jersey Stadium, also known as the MetLife stadium, home of the Jets and the Giants.
It’s been bucketing down all afternoon and the rain is still falling heavily.
Croatia drop Gvardiol for Ghana decider
In the group’s other match, Croatia need a win or a draw against Ghana to be guaranteed their place in the knockout rounds.
Coach Zlatko Dalic gives starts to Ante Budimir and Nikola Vlasic for the first time in this World Cup, and forward Petar Sucic gets a recall, while Manchester City’s Gvardiol is on the bench.
Ghana have already booked their place in the next round and coach Carlos Queiroz brings Kamaldeen Sulemana into the attack for the game in Philadelphia, with Derrick Luckassen coming into the defence in place of Jerome Opoku.
We’ll bring you updates from this game too.
The big story from last night
Or this morning, if you’re in Europe or Africa.
Panama’s Carrasquilla on the bench again
Key midfielder Adalberto Carrasquilla is on the bench once more with a muscle injury.
The starting XI:Orlando Mosquera, Fidel Escobar, Jose Cordoba, Andres Andrade, Amir Murillo, Jorge Gutierrez, Carlos Harvey, Cristian Martinez, Jose Luis Rodriguez, Edgar Yoel Barcenas, Tomas Rodriguez.
England make five changes to starting XI
Jarell Quansah gets his first World Cup start as he replaces injured right-back Reece James, among five changes from coach Thomas Tuchel .
Marcus Rashford steps in for Anthony Gordon on the left, while Bukayo Saka replaces Noni Madueke and Morgan Rogers comes in for midfielder Declan Rice.
Overall a more offensive squad as Tuchel aims to break down Panama’s low block.
Starting XI: Jordan Pickford; Nico O’Reilly, Ezri Konsa, Marc Guehi, Jarell Quansah, Morgan Rogers, Elliot Anderson, Jude Bellingham, Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka
