New Delhi, June 17 -- Ghana clash with Panama in Group L at the FIFA World Cup 2026. The match takes place on Wednesday, 18 June, with kick-off at 3:30 AM for viewers in India. The match will take place at the Toronto Stadium in Ontario, Canada.

Ghana and Panama have never previously met in senior international football. Their Group L encounter in Toronto is a historic first meeting.

With no direct head-to-head record, regional history offers some context. Ghana have fared well against CONCACAF opposition at World Cups. They have won 2 of their 3 previous encounters against North and Central American sides.

Panama's record against African teams is limited. Their sole such World Cup meeting ended in a 2-1 defeat to Tunisia in 2018.
