PBP: Battle for 3 points: USA @ Honduras; 4:00 pm EST

These are the kind of games where a bunkering strategy is the best bet, unfortunately, this defensive lineup makes that very hard to do.

 

Jesus, I've got the same butterflies as when I'm starting a match...

 

it's Williams job today

 

The ref called a penalty, good sign?

 

And he was a shitty coach for DC United.

 

Sounds like they're broadcasting from inside a soundproof booth....kind of stale like....

 

WOw... what a start... a lot of nerves right now..

 

The production is terrible.

 

Omar wins an early header -- good morale boost.

 

Come on guys, don't let me down. I need a link to a feed.

 

Phew -- volleyballed into the vuvuzelasphere.

 

Tim Chandler is now officially captied.

That will make most of you happy, so smile.

 

Klinsi Jedi Mind Tricked us (and Honduras), didn't he? This is an attacking line-up!

 

shaky

Either the horns are drowning out the actual broadcast and BeIn is sound dampening them or they have a looped tape of horns they play periodically.

 

what do you expect from central america?

 

good half-chance from the catrachos

is Amado Guevara still playing for Honduras?

 

03' 0-0 Honduras with most of the ball. Free kick from 22m left touch, softly down the left sideline. Low soft cross to 6-top left, cleared out weakly to 15m box top left. Honduras chips it way over.

04' 0-0 Honduras switches from 25m center to #10 Mario Martínez alone at box top wide left. He shoots a dipper to left post, Howard bobbles but smothers it.

 

They're dampening the stadium sound -- went up and down once already.

 

slow start

 

Honduras has taken the ball away from the U.S. at their feet a couple times far too easily.

 

Loving the chase from altidore so far...

Dempsey looking good with that last hustle run... but needs to tighten up his touch and speed to the ball.
