Panama’s March scenarios are crucial on their way to Qatar 2022

PANAMA CITY, March 2 (EFE) – The Panamanian football team will see a month of high tension in March at the end of the octagonal CONCACAF final qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup.

The Panamanians, with 17 units in the bag, Honduras (March 24) and Canada (March 30) at home, and as visitors to the United States (March 27), will face all major duels in their potential rankings.

Honduras: forced to win

Those led by Thomas Christiansen will have the most accessible of the three encounters against the Honduran team and this forces them to add three points.

Honduras, coached by Colombian Hernan Dario Gomez, arrive in the ousted Panamanian capital and the situation can be used by the Panamanians for that first step in the final stage towards the World Cup.

Without leaving the sight of Mexico and Costa Rica

Panamanians will come out in this last window with the firm conviction of going straight to the World Cup or filling that quota of the Intercontinental Qualifiers.

But then they will have their sights set on Mexico, which is third in the table with 21 points, and Costa Rica, fifth and one point behind the fourth-placed Panamanians.

While Panama faces Honduras, the Mexicans will have to fight against the United States, where they can leave points, and take advantage of them by their atheists.

outstanding ticos

The draw for Costa Rica also depends on the results of the matches in Panama and Mexico.

And they expect the Central American red team’s stumble, Mexico, and their victory over Canada, which would take the Panamanians out of fourth and put them two points behind Mexico, which will remain in third place.

Honduras and El Salvador, allies of Panama

After the first date, the visit of the Panamanians on March 27 to the United States will be measured.

Thomas Christiansen’s account for this match was to score points against the Americans, Honduras and El Salvador for doing their job.

The Salvadoran team will receive Costa Rica in El Cuscatlan and Mexico will visit Honduras.

Seven points, good loot

Panama has 17 points in the duels played in the playoffs and seven points in this last window, may be the best case scenario for the Central American red team.

Victories against Honduras and Canada at home, where the Panamanians remain undefeated, a draw with the United States and Costa Rica only adding two points in the closing qualifiers would be the scenario that would secure Panama a place in the intercontinental qualifiers and their potential participation in the second.
