Other piece is that Mexico has already qualified - most countries would probably use these games to try out new tactics or blood youngsters. So Honduras's last game likely won't be a Mexico side as motivated as we faced. That said they're pretty big rivals so I'd be shocked if Mexico doesn't give them a game. I think a loss today by more than a goal and it's completely over though and a loss by a goal and we're talking 10-1 odds.
A draw and you're basically at the mercy of Mexico. For me it'll be very tough to call what happens next week in that scenario.
Somehow win and I think they are in. They would need to be really unlucky not to make the hex. Considering all I've heard is that Floro is parking the bus today, seems like they are playing with a similar outlook to the game in El Salvador though, survive and get a point.

The one saving grace with Mexico already qualifying is that the game is at the Estadio Azteca, they aren't going to allow a team to come into the hardest stadium in the world to play in and go easy.
Game on! Come on Canada!

Sweet mother what a save. Poor finish, but damn, that could have been devastating if that went in.

The longer it goes like this, the more frustrated the Hondurans and their fans will become. The ref seems fairly composed so far. Anyone know where he's from?
