A strong Belgium side on paper struggled to break down Panama’s defence on Monday in the Central American country’s first ever appearance at a World Cup finals.

When Mark Lawrenson is commentating I just feel like I'm watching the game with some random old bloke down the pub who has no idea who any of the players are, doesn't know the rules, doesn't really understand football at all… And my TV license pays his wages! #WorldCup #BELPAN

If Panama aren’t gonna win at least they are gonna try and break the record for most yellow cards in a World Cup game #BELPAN

After listening to Mark Lawrenson on #BELPAN I'm going to listen to my Morrissey Sings Leonard Cohen album to cheer myself up before #ENGTUN
