Thomas Christiansen to continue leading Panama towards 2030 World Cup
Panama's Football Federation (FEPAFUT) has renewed Thomas Christiansen as coach until the 2030 World Cup, after their participation in the World Cup. Christiansen took charge of Panama in 2020 in a first period that ended without being able to qualify for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, after the first Panamanian world trip to Russia 2018.
Why is it important for Panama?
The renewal of Christiansen is important for Panama because it gives continuity to the national team in its process of evolution and bringing joy to their country. FEPAFUT hopes that the new executive committee, which will be elected in December, can decide to continue or not with what has been agreed, without putting the financial risk of the sports organization at stake.
What's next?
FEPAFUT hopes to formalize the agreement in the coming weeks and establish a way for the new executive committee to decide whether to continue or not with what has been agreed. Meanwhile, Panama continues working towards the 2030 World Cup, with Christiansen at the helm.
The latest news from Panama was their defeat against Brazil in the Copa América, with a score of 6-2. In their last series of games, Panama has had a record of 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses, with their last two games ending in losses. The national team continues working to improve their performance and achieve their goal of qualifying for the 2030 World Cup.
