Honduras, French Guiana play to a controversial scoreless draw

Honduras and French Guiana played to a scoreless draw in a CONCACAF Gold Cup Group A match Tuesday night at Houston's BBVA Compass Stadium. But Honduras appears likely to be awarded the three points for a win due to a forfeit.

A decision on disciplinary action against French Guiana for using an ineligible player is expected by Wednesday. French Guiana elected to play captain Florent Malouda despite CONCACAF's insistence that Malouda, previously capped with France's national team, was not eligible.

Malouda started the match, so French Guiana faced a 3-0 forfeit despite the actual outcome on the pitch, according to FOX Sports.
