They were also cheap. I don't think its lack of skill, its just they're not worth the initial fee. Then teams like Motagua fack it up when they hike up prices.
Motagua actually sells them for decent prices, they sold Emilio for half a million, hibs just didn't have the money for claros. Olimpia is the team that only does multi million dollar deals..
Mario Martinez is the Honduran version of Freddy Adu... So much hype about him since a young age yet.. Now almost 25 and nothing.. He scored youth World Cup goals was the team captain in the youth team went to multiple european teams before turning 20 and he's still just not a good enough player to make a impact on the NT.
U-20s kick off right now, line-up: Lopez; Alvarez, Paz, Santos, Moncada; Flores, Benavidez, Lopez, Escalante; Rochez y Elis
Elis makes no mistakes about it and pokes home the second gol for Honduras in a free kick scramble in the box. Honduras 2-0
Honduras vs Cuba kicked off. Lineup: Lopez; Maylor, Paz, Santos, Moncada; Flores, Jhow, Escalante, Lopez; Chirinos y Elis Kevin Alvarez y Rochez benched. Lol Jimenez desperate.
Halftime: 0-0 I just hope people don't think that them making or not making the U-20 WC should define their future as professionals. Jimenez isn't their primary coach, he won't ruin their careers nor dictate them moving forward. That mindset will destroy these kids and the media needs to know that. Im more concerned about how Elis does at Olimpia than how he's performed at this tournament or any other tournament.
Gooolllllll finallyyyyy. Alberth Elis puts away a mishit, by Chirinos, in the box with his stomach. Sloppy goal but well deserved over the course of the second half. This immediately after Cuba subbed goalies. Also John Suazo in for Escalante.
Gooooolllllllll supersub, John Paul Suazo!! Cross from the left, bounced to Elis who cheated it in the box and left it for Suazo who hit it upper right corner!! 2-0, plz hold the lead.
Gggggoooooollllllll Jhow Benavidez!!!! Jhow on a break away lays it off for Rolin who hits it one time, off the goalie, it bounces to Jhow who pounces on the rebound and puts the nail in the coffin. 3-0
