For Panama, Anibal Godoy set a record with his 149th cap, while five players retained their starting roles from a recent qualifier win. Ismael Diaz scored twice against Guadeloupe, joined by goals from Cristian Martinez, Eduardo Guerrero, and Tomas Abdiel Rodriguez Mena, who scored his first senior team goal.
