The Panama men’s national team has won just one game in 2018: a March friendly against Trinidad and Tobago. Nonetheless, Los Canaleros celebrated their first ever appearance at a World Cup this year, so this year will perhaps be remembered fondly by Panama fans regardless.
Still, it would surely be pleasing to close out 2018 with a positive result. Panama has two friendlies scheduled for November - against Honduras in Tegucigalpa on November 16, and against Ecuador in Panama City on November 20.
Two New York Red Bulls have been ever-present in the Panama squad this year: Michael Amir Murillo and Fidel Escobar.
