Bermuda Dig Deep and Defeat Panama – Sports Zone

Panama 🇵🇦 0 vs Bermuda 🇧🇲 2 CONCACAF Nations League Group

Bermuda dug deep and claimed another mighty scalp by defeating Panama 🇵🇦 0 vs Bermuda 🇧🇲 2 at Estadio Rommel Fernández Gutiérrez, with seating capacity of 32,000.

Panama with a population of 4million people are ranked 74th in the FIFA world rankings, made their maiden World Cup appearance in 2018.

With this historic victory, the Bermuda National Team have made a major statement in the Football world and served notice that Bermuda is not a seat-warmer in the Nations League Group A.

Coach Kyle Lightbourn and the entire Bermuda Team deserve credit for a clinical victory in the lion’s den playing away from home.

Bermuda successfully defended for long periods of time, with Panama enjoying 76% possession, 13 corners and 6 shots on goal. But the team who scores the most goals win and on this occasion Bermuda’s Nahki Wells made the most of his chances won the match by scoring both Bermuda goals.

The impact of this huge win for Bermuda is waiting in the future – but the world of sport are loving this “David vs Goliath” story – with Mexico 🇲🇽 our next opponent in the Nations League we must continue to “Dare to Believe in Ourselves”.

For Bermuda as a country, here is one more reason why we should rally around our National Football Team.

Today our young people across the island have new heroes who are making history by putting us on the map as they do so – Hail to Bermuda 🇧🇲.
