On Saturday, our Canadian national team traveled down to the hot and humid Central American country of Honduras to face off versus their national team. This match was part of Canada's bid to qualify for Russia 2018. A win would go a very long way to qualifying Canada for the next round of qualifying known as the Hex. Other than Canada's goal to advance to Russia, Canada was also playing for pride. Our Canadian boys desperately wanted to avenge the 8-1 loss they suffered at the hands of Honduras in 2012.
Canada and Honduras traded scoring chances early.
