Panama were held to a 0-0 draw in their friendly warm-up match against Northern Ireland on Wednesday. Panama’s World Cup send-off party continued as the visistors failed to score.
Having drawn 1-1 with Wales in November, Panama could not find a way past the Northern Irish . Jonny Evans was selected in central midfield as coach O’Neill named a strong side for the friendly.
Panama left their captain Roman Torres on the bench for their final home game before they head to Russia, with kick-off delayed by 10 minutes due to a host of pre-game ceremonies including a lengthy firework display.
