Almost

Martinique held their own for almost the entire match against now-favourites (of Group A) Panama.

But one silly mistake was enough to see them lose the match. 5 more minutes, and it would have been just about over.

Everybody expects Mexico to come back now, and to win their last remaining matches. They're probably going to beat Martinique, in the third match.
With a point, Martinique would have been through, most likely (or, if USA and Costa Rica win again, for sure). And, then, they wouldn't have had to worry about losing big to Mexico.

If Martinique loses to Mexico in the third match, then even Canada could come back to qualify with a decent win over Panama.

This group is not over yet.

What we know for sure, though, is that Panama has advanced to the quarter-final stage with a game to spare.
