Panama and Bosnia and Herzegovina played to a 1-1 draw at Energizer Park on Saturday in their last friendly before the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Bosnia took the lead in the 23rd minute through Nikola Katić’s header from an Amar Dedić cross. Panama equalized in first-half stoppage time with a right-footed strike from Jiovany Ramos in the 45+4th minute.
Both teams made several substitutions in the second half to test squad depth, but neither could find a winner despite chances at both ends.
The result gives Panama valuable experience ahead of their tough Group L campaign against England, Croatia, and Ghana.
The Canaleros open the tournament against Ghana on June 17 in Toronto.
