Three chances created in defeat
Martinez had two crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-0 loss versus England.
Analysis: Martinez was fouled on multiple occasions throughout Saturday's 2-0 World Cup defeat to England, contributing to a physical midfield battle that saw Panama compete well territorially before England's second-half breakthrough. He helped Panama's defensive structure hold firm for over an hour and was active in the attack by contributing to three chances before Jude Bellingham's 62nd minute opener broke the deadlock. Panama's tournament ends with the result, eliminated at the bottom of Group L without a single goal scored in three matches.
Attempts seven crosses in loss
Martinez recorded seven crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Tuesday's 1-0 loss versus Croatia.
Analysis: Martinez played a major role in set pieces, but his deliveries didn't reach the desired destination throughout the match. It was his second successive start on the right flank, and he increased his total to 10 crosses over that span. However, he has yet to create a scoring chance or send in an accurate cross.
