predictions? OPINIONS, COMMENTS? me: optimist: Tie 1-1 in Azteca Win 2-1 in Olimpico pesimiste: Lose in Azteca 1-0 Win in Olimpico 2-0 hahahahah....
When's the game being played?? Are you talking about the WCQ match?? If you are, then i'd think it will most likely be a 1-1 or 2-2 draw. Depending on how well SGE adapts to the Mexican side and if he can do something positive with them and recover from all the damage Sanchez did when he was head coach. If the game was next week, i'd call you guys for the win. But it's still a good 2 months away, so who knows.
3-0 Mexico like in 2001. Props to Costa Rica for being able to beat Mexico in that stadium in those qualifiers too. I doubt any centroamerica team will be able to do that ever again. .
Agreed, it will be tough. But Mexico post Sanchez is a mess. So if anyone was gonna do it, it's gonna be Honduras. But then again, in saying that, i still think it'll end all square at the end of the 90 minutes.
IF Honduras continue to show there talent, and their players continue to showcase their ability to play against the worlds highest level i don't see any reason why Honduras can't win in easily in Honduras. As for El Azteca i'm not sure, i'm seeing a tie. Honduras 2 vs Mexico 1 Mexico 1 vs Honduras 1 I really don't think Mexico will dominate at home, there on a horrible streak and i don't think there defenders can withstand Rey David, Wilson Palacios, Costly, Rambo....theres to much speed and agility. Sanchez for Mexico seems horrible as of late. I'm rooting for Honduras hands down.
on paper this game looks to be slightly in favor of honduras...but we know whats on paper doesnt matter that much when u play in el azteca...as of right now i think ochoa should prob. start in goal but who know what SE will decide becuz of the experience of sanchez..of course id rather see sanchez cuz he was awwwful against argentina...as for honduras i def. think Valladares will start as for the rest of the team here there are: Mexico: Osorio, Magallon, Rafa, Salcido, Torrado, Pardo, Guardado, Arce, Gio, Castillo Honduras: Maynor, Bernardez, Chavez, Bonieck, Thomas, Rambo, Palacios, Alvarez, Costly, Suazo DEF.. looks like on paper that mexico slow back four will have a huge problem with our athleticism...i think torrado is a huge weakness in the middle for them...it looks like thier weapons are gio(who's inexperienced in this maginitude of the match), guardado who is a beast, and castillo who has game breaking speed...boniek controlled guardado in the gold cup..and we have to be physical with castillo...i have thomas blanketing gio..thats a pretty good matchup....i also want maynor to attack more...this looks pretty good on paper
Mexico is a team that is all about momentum. Honduras along with the U.S. are two teams in the CONCACAF who seem to have Mexico figured out the most and are the biggest thorns in Mexico's side. In the past year of friendlies Honduras has been ON FIRE, and Mexico for the most part has kept falling short or just looking flat. As long as Honduras can come in to the 2nd and 3rd round of WCQ's their ticket for South Africa are already in the bag.
The WCQ's are a different beast though. Wait and see how Honduras performs in the next round (vs MEX,CAN,JAM) before you crown them as one of the CONCACAF reps in WC2010 becuase I guarantee you that group will not at all be cake for Honduras . and to add to what I said earlier in the post, for some strange reason, Mexico always has the mental advantage in Azteca. It's frustrating really...
Ima laugh if one of them dont qualify..dont know how but if they dont I wil laugh hard and for days maybe even weeks. but hopefully nothing crazy does happen.
ey man, i remember when Honduras beat Mexico in last minutes at the Gold Cup last year in New York, Mexico got they ass handed to Honduras. i hope Honduras, Canada and Jamaica knock 'em out in group stage. good luck Honduras!!!!!!
Lol, that day me and my whole family were catrachos just for that game. Lol, jesus christ we were going crazy when Costly headed the goal. Massive game from this young man.
i almost started crying because that day we showed Mexico we are no pushovers,specially to Hugo Sanchez. I still remember 2001 in SPS 3-1
Lets not get ahead of ourselves there is still one important thing......Mexies have to play belize. VAmos Belize Where can I buy a Jersey of them?
i remember that game too, in san pedro sula, right? pavon scored twice or a hat-trick? one of 'em was a badass free kick goal. well, the guatemala-mexico games im never ever gonna forget and i was there in person was the 3-2 win for Guate in Nov. 2007 in LA and the Sub-23 2-1 win for Guate for the olymipcs in Carson in March 2008!!!!!!!!
We beat them twice in SPS once in 1996 2-1 that was at el Morazan then again in 2001 hat trick by Pavon, the volley, then freekick becks style, and the pk, which came because they fouled Suazo. [youtube]PzWxc0pR_dg[/youtube]
LMAO hahhah that cat is adorable. Yeah Guates that game was sick. Very sick game by you boys. I remember in LA 2003 ES vs Mexico....Corrales and Diego Mejia soned GK Sanchez..... Cienfuegos despedida. Sad though.
This is gonna be a really good game, Honduras is in good form.. playing well, as a team y con buenas individualidades.. and mexico, well they played good against peru, and horrrible against argentina but then again its argentina with messi and aguero up top. I'm really looking forward to this match, a tie is a good result for honduras considering their playing away but im rooting for the W! vamos cipotes!!!
Reality is that the most likely result is a Mexican win. Lets not fall into the same mistake of thinking we are one of the best in the area, we are good but thinking we can easily beat Mexico at home does seem unlikely. A tie would be amazing, lets not get carried away.
mexico looked weak today, Honduras should seriously look over the belize game and get ready, gonna be a long summer BOYS!
You know, Football is a funny thing... it's not something you can calculate. OK, so we tied with Venezuela, while dominating the match... right? So, does that mean we can score twice against Brazil? Not necessarily. Or we beat Belize 2-0 with our B/C squad, while Mexico had the same result with their A squad well then PR should have been a walk in the park; but they just ended up being a pain in the ass. I f the numbers add up logically thene able to at least tie with the Mexies in the Azteca... Who's with me ???
