Panamá vs México | 2025 Concacaf Women's U-20 Championship | Group Stage

Welcome to CONCACAF's Women's Under-20 Championship. Today's matchup is between Panama and Mexico. Peru picking up that football, and Panama decked out the old Charlene King. And we are, indeed, underway here. The penalty area on the left-hand side. Now there's a cross towards the D, and right back. And a goal early in this one. Mexico leads. Although the offside flag is up. I thought she might have been. And I believe they're checking for the offside. And she is going to go. And there it is. Indeed, it was a goal, I thought. And that's a really good run. That play there is onside. It's the return ball, right? Boy, that's close. That is close. Until a defender gets in the way. There's a right-footed shot. And a rebound in for Mexico. Make it 2 to 0. It's Munoz. And this happened so fast. Let's take another look at it. Let's see if we can see the offside. Indeed, it is. OK. Offside on Mexico. No goal. Still 1-0. The center circle. Here's a cross lifted over the top. And oh, well played. A couple of opportunities at it. And Mexico just unable to find Ramirez. It's a lovely, delicate ball over the top, the left side of the penalty area. Then a cross towards the penalty spot. A swing and a miss for number 19, Saldivar. And you've got to keep your eye on number 19, Saldivar. She has two goals in this tournament. Well played in the box is Mexico. On the right-hand side, there's a right-footed play that is for Panama. Saldivar had an opportunity to shoot here and didn't, but Panama in the box. On this right-hand side, there's a cross on the far side for Panama. Goal kick, Mexico. Trying to curl it to that back post. Bellows. It's a ball over the top. Onside for now. And a goal chipped over. Mexico 2, Panama 0. It's going to be really close. I think she is onside. VAR is here to check, so no worries. But a lovely chip over the 16-year-old goalkeeper, Elsa Grant of Nicaragua. It's a great idea not to even bother to dribble. Just lift that ball. Goals in the second minute. And the 43rd, just outside the penalty area. And that is indeed a foul. Just about two yards outside the 18. On that one, Soto strides. Soto strikes. Mexico 3, Panama 0. Make the correct call. And Soto with the instep over to the left side. Grant just doesn't even move. Here's Fregoso on it now, to the left of the D. Some lovely moves. Great save. Oh, and here's a ball that gets through. Mexico trying to pitch. She gets it. One touch. And a shot and a goal. Saldivar strikes. Sensational goal, Mexico 4. Panama didn't dribble into the box this time, did she, folks? Nope. First time, she said, give it to me. What a strike. Great goal by Saldivar. We'll see her take that one look. Your goal summary, it was Ramirez. Had two goals in the first half. Second minute, 43rd.
