Creates two chances in loss
Murillo had two shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-0 defeat versus England.
Analysis: Murillo played the entirety of Saturday's 2-0 World Cup defeat to England, creating two chances and registering two shot attempts in the second half as part of Panama's disciplined 5-4-1 defensive setup that frustrated the Three Lions for long stretches. He helped limit England's space throughout a match where Panama matched their opponents for spells of pressure and shot volume. Panama's tournament concludes with the result, eliminated at the bottom of Group L without a single goal scored in three matches.
All-around effort Tuesday
Murillo generated three shots (one on goal), four crosses (three accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat against Croatia.
Analysis: Murillo stood out among Panama players in terms of shots and dribbles, yet he lacked defensive success on the right flank. His experience and versatility make him an important asset for the team, but he failed to earn a clean sheet or goal contribution over the initial pair of matches. Moreover, he's in a difficult situation with his side knocked out of the competition and facing England in the group-stage finale.
