Summary
Cecilio Waterman, 35, pushed and shoved teammate Jose Luis Rodriguez during a disagreement on Friday as Panama prepared for Saturday's World Cup game against England.
Other Panama players had to restrain Waterman as he kept confronting Rodriguez, though coach Thomas Christiansen later played down the incident.
The flare-up comes with Panama already eliminated and facing the risk of a sixth straight World Cup defeat, which would match the tournament's longest 100% losing streak.
Waterman, a 57-cap forward with 15 international goals, is competing with Jose Fajardo for a starting spot after opening the tournament against Ghana and appearing off the bench against Croatia.
