    Panama v Tunisia (19:00 BST)

    Panama's all-time record appearance maker Gabriel Gomez wins his 145th - and most likely final - cap in a team showing four changes to the one walloped by England last Sunday. Full-back Michael Murillo and midfielder Armando Cooper are suspended, while Gabriel Torres replaces Blas Perez in attack.

    Panama XI: Penedo; Machado, R Torres, Escobar, Ovalle; Gomez; Barcenas, Avila, Godoy, J Rodriguez; G Torres.

    Panama v Tunisia (19:00 BST)

    For Panama, just getting to Russia was a miracle. Tunisia had hoped for something a bit more than a group-stage exit. And maybe, if they had held on for a draw in their opener against England, they might have got something more.

    As it is, tonight is all about bowing out with dignity, enjoying the end of the party, and trying to finish with a win. So let's face the music and dance...

    The good news, at least, is that there's no need to worry about whether yellow cards will affect qualification in this game.

    Sometimes, sport can be remarkable - it can bring joy, it can reduce you to tears.

    And sometimes, it can be the equivalent of the Edinburgh show in front of an audience of zero.

    But you know? Sport would be boring if it was always high drama. Sometimes, you need the dead rubbers to appreciate the big moments.

    And let's not lie. Panama v Tunisia is very much a dead rubber.

    Frank Skinner tells a story in his autobiography about doing a show at the 1988 Edinburgh festival where no one turned up.

    "It was, to be fair, my only blank sheet of the run," he wrote, "but my record attendance was only 12, and over the two weeks, I averaged about four."

    Football must have felt a long way from coming home back then. But do you know what? Sometimes, the least promising scenarios can lead you somewhere special.
