Honduras Sub23 2012 London Olympic Qualifiers

Honduras vs Spain LIVE Updates Honduras vs Spain. Honduras and Spain will face off at the 2012 Olympic Games on Sunday July 29th 2012 at 12:45PM in St. James’ Park — Newcastle-upon-Tyne. This game has now become a pivotal road to advancing to the next phase in Group D as highly touted Spain badly needs a win and will be looking to take out their anger on the relatively unheralded Honduras, but they may well run into more resistance than they might expected as the Catrachos know how important this win can be.

If they accomplish nothing else at the London Olympic games, defeating Spain would be make them heroes when they return home. In addition, for Honduras ,should the Catrachos pull off an upset against Spain, they would position themselves to advance to the next phase of the Olympics for the first time in Honduras Olympic History.

Following his team’s shock 1-0 defeat to Japan on Thursday, Spain coach Luis Milla will make lots of changes for this crucial match against Honduras after his team’s performance in the loss to Japan.

Honduras coach Luis Suarez was satisfied with his team’s performance in its first match of the tournament, earning a 2-2 draw against a good Morocco delegation, so drastic changes are not expected with no new injury problems reported.

Against Morocco, Suarez elected to swarm the midfield and play just the one striker, tactics that look certain to be chosen once again with Jerry Bengtson looking to build on his first game double.
