England are through to the FIFA World Cup Round of 32 as winners of Group L after a 2-0 victory over Panama, with goals from Jude Bellingham and Harry Kane doing the damage for Thomas Tuchel's side.

The result, though not a vintage performance — hence the word "labour" in many post-match assessments — was enough to confirm England's place at the top of their group, sending them into the knockout rounds with maximum points from the top spot.

Bellingham broke the deadlock to give England the lead, and Kane added a second to put the result beyond doubt. The win secured England's position as group winners heading into the last 32.

Panama, who were unable to match England's quality on the day, exit the tournament at the group stage having failed to find the net in the match.

Tuchel's side will now await their Round of 32 opponents as the FIFA World Cup continues to build toward its climax.
