Mexico's grey day and other thoughts from El Tri's draw with Honduras

Related Topics: Honduras, Mexico, Jorge Luis Pinto

Mexico finished the fourth round of qualification undefeated but fans have reason for feeling a little uneasy as the team heads into the Hex.

The days of black-and-white televisions are long behind us, but you might as well have watched Mexico's scoreless draw with Honduras on an old tube TV. The game was gray, lacking impetus from a Mexico side that struggled to get past Honduras' stout defense, and that therefore filed to animate an Estadio Azteca that already seemed to be ready for the Hex games that 2017 will bring to Mexico City.

The fans surely would've made some sort of roar had Mexico given them anything to cheer about.
