USMNT Back on Track in World Cup Qualifying After 6-0 Win vs. Honduras

The US national team resumed play in the Hexagonal round of 2018 World Cup qualifying in commanding fashion, routing Honduras 6-0 at Avaya Stadium in San Jose on Friday.

Sebastian Lletget opened the scoring just five minutes in. US captain Michael Bradley doubled the lead midway through the first half with a daisy-cutter from distance, and Clint Dempsey scored five minutes later to extend the lead. Christian Pulisic piled it on directly off the second half kickoff, before Dempsey notched his second of the night a few minutes later, and completed his hat trick with a free kick goal.
