Jordan Pickford: A good save from a Jose Luis Rodriguez effort in the first half after the first hydration break. A couple of loose clearances, though. 6 Jarell Quansah: His first start in a World Cup at right-back. Does not have the passing range of Reece James but solid defensively. Came off with an ankle injury in the second half. 6 Ezri Konsa: One good crossfield pass released Marcus Rashford on an early attack. But a lot of running towards his own goal as Panama made the most of the space England left. 6 Marc Guehi: Was required to make a few recovery runs as England had to deal with attacks from Panama while the Three Lions pushed for the opening goal. 6 Nico O'Reilly: With Quansah at left-back O'Reilly's ability to move into midfield was even more important. A real threat in the air with his late runs into the box. 6 Elliot Anderson: Continued to show why he is the starting number six for England. Kept the ball ticking over in midfield and had the responsibility of being the only real main defensive midfielder. Had a lot of ground to cover but injected pace into the England attacks with his passing. 7 Jude Bellingham : Played in a deeper role and was on the ball a lot more than the previous match. He played Harry Kane into the box for a good chance in the second half and scored England's opener before providing a quality assist to Kane for England's second. Showed again why he is England's X-factor. …
