    No way...against a team that attacks yes...but Honduras defends pretty well, they are a physical bunch.

    I didn't see much difference between Honduras and Switzerland...

    Honduras 1-1 Spain

    It will be a toughly contested match and Honduras' defense is no slouch. I hope they come to play.

    Goals from Xabi Alonso and Suazo

    Spain having the edge with possession. This match might not be pretty for Honduras.

    Another penalty, Honduras N23 push Ramos in the penalty area at a corner kick.

    Spain is not considered a" abig ones" by the refs.

    Well, Honduras almost and then Spain at that other end.

    Could this be the beginning of the onslaught?
