Because of goal differential, Honduras (4-3-2) must defeat Mexico(4-3-2) Nov. 11 at Mexico's intimidating Azteca Stadium in order to qualify.

Defeating Mexico at the Azteca stadium (which no doubt will be filled at capacity --110,000 seating and screaming maniacs) is no small feat. Unless you are Brazil, Argentina, Germany or the like. (Costa Rica has done it)

But little Honduras ?

I doubt it will happen...

Honduras also had some bad luck, putting three shots off the goalpost.

Yeah... yeah... yeah... sniff, sniff, sniff...

OTOH...

As the game ended, the Honduran team left the field under a shower of insults and protected by police.

LOL... this (if not worse), is what awaits Mexico if they lose the game on Nov 11. The team will need mercenary bodyguards to be protected FROM the police... -ggg-
