- Jimenez drills the likely game-winner in the 92nd minute! He’s been the best player on the field all night.
- Raul Jimenez lines up to take the shot after a handball inside the box.
- Suspended due to the “p***” chant.
- It will likely resume in a minute or two, but who knows what will happen if fans keep doing the chant.
- … and organizers aren’t doing anything about it.
- Mexico fans have screamed “p***” en masse at least five times tonight. The first one is supposed to trigger an in-stadium warning, and the start of the three-step protocol.
- We just got our first warning after the fifth (and loudest) one, in the 82nd minute.
- Both teams still going for it, with 14 minutes of the 90 to go.
- Both look capable of finding a second goal.
- Announced attendance, by the way, is 68,212. Not a sellout, but it very much filled in for the final.
- Mexico’s best qualities and its clearest flaws have been on display here.
- They play with plenty of passion. They’ve clearly bought in to what Aguirre is preaching. They have two superb strikers, and Edson has been close to his combative best.
- But, they lack attacking structure and creativity. Roberto Alvarado just epitomized that when he let an attack fizzle with a sloppy touch on the right wing. So they haven’t been able to overwhelm Panama.
- Still 1-1, 74th minute.

- Panama came to play. Took an early punch and never even wobbled. (Also got essentially the exact same penalty that Canada didn’t get three days earlier.)
- Almost no matter how this final ends, Los Canaleros have been the most impressive team this week.
- Should be an excellent second half.
- Panama’s Adalberto Carrasquilla gets the penalty past Luis Malagon to even things up just before halftime.
