¡Gana Honduras!

The first game for the world cup qualifiers was on Wednesday night in San Pedro and Honduras came out on top! Now granted that Honduras was playing against Puerto Rico, a nation renowned for baseball, not futbol. Then there’s the fact that the world cup is in 2010, another 2 years away. The game was almost canceled because of rain and the field was more of a small lagoon than a soccer field with water more visible than players. The final score was 4 – 0 with David Suazo providing two goals. Suazo is the “national hero” of soccer as he made it onto Inter (Italy). I think that he holds more power than the average politician in Honduras…☺
