The match concluded in a goalless draw, leaving Panama's progression uncertain. Panama advanced to the Nations League Finals in Los Angeles with a win, while Curaçao's advancement depended on a favorable aggregate score. Curaçao had several chances, including a long shot hit by Tahith Chong that struck the post. Panama conceded two goals in the 24th minute, firstly from a header by Amir Murillo against the post, and later goalkeeper Orlando Mosquera made two crucial saves while Curaçao's Eloy Room made six. Panama made five substitutions and maintained pressure, but substitute Kadir Barría's shot in the 88th minute was saved. The decisive match is scheduled for Sunday 15 November 2026 at 6 p.m. ET in Panama City, hosted in the Rommel Fernández stadium. A win for Panama would secure their spot in the Nations League Finals, while a draw or a 1-0 or 2-1 win would favor Curaçao.",
