غنا مقابل پاناما

Caleb Yirenkyi broke Panamanian hearts deep in stoppage time, slotting home in the 95th minute to give Ghana a dramatic 1-0 win over Panama in their 2026 World Cup Group L opener at Toronto Stadium. It was the latest goal Ghana have ever scored at the tournament. Panama controlled 64 percent of possession in the first half and looked the more dangerous side. The match swung when Ghana goalkeeper Lawrence Ati-Zigi limped off injured at half-time, bringing on substitute Benjamin Asare, who responded with three crucial saves to keep the scores level. Antoine Semenyo was the Black Stars' creative engine throughout, and it was his involvement that sparked the winning move, Brandon Thomas-Asante's cross eventually finding Yirenkyi at the far post. Panama have now lost all four matches they have ever played at a World Cup. For Ghana, the three points, combined with England's 4-2 win over Croatia in the group's other game, leave them sitting second in Group L with momentum firmly behind them.
