I don't even really see a chance at points away.... anywhere. Our best chance will be to run the table at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xabuep2 Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Here an interesting article of Diez.hn from Honduras about some predictions of Group A http://www.diez.hn/laseleccion/878600-99/expertos-analizan-el-camino-de-honduras-en-eliminatorias-concacaf According to the Honduran sports analyst Nahum Espinoza Honduras and Mexico will advance without problems for the next stage. On the other side, Christian Peñate a Salvadoran journalist was very hard in his comments about the Canadian team : "Canada has a very cold and weak football, it seems the coach Benito Flores has failed to properly amalgamate his pieces, and so the second place will be between Honduras and El Salvador" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know Canada has no flair or technical ability with the ball, where are strong is in the air, physicallity and fitness levels. Obviously these journalists are thinking that Benito Floro has failed to change Canada's style to a more free flowing attack. They both agree that Mexico is already assured of a place, so the battle for 2nd will be between Honduras and El Salvador and who can get more points outta Canada.

Sure they beat us 8-1 but that was 2 years ago. They finished with 1 point in a group they should have finished atleast 3rd. Also Mexico isn't going to drop any points to teams who couldn't even make the knockout rounds of the gold cup. Expect Canada to grind some games out and advance.

I honestly can't see Canada winning an away match. We couldn't even beat Belize away even though they could've gone ahead several times, if they were a better side. Honduras is Honduras. Doesn't matter if it was 10 years or 2 yeara ago, they crushed us in Tegucigalpa. We now have a stigma in the men's team that fears Honduras and a Honduran that doesn't fear Canada one bit and will be out to humiliate us, if they can. El Salvador have historically played Canada strong, so don't see how we'll beat them away. Also they at least put the balls in the back of the net in the Gold Cup comapared to us, so I can see them getting 3rd on goal differentials at least.

Yea but what is the point of scoring goals if you can't defend. Also that "Canada are afraid of Honduras" idea is total bullsh*t. If that is the case Germany should fear Italy every time they play them. Costa Rica should have feared every team in the World Cup. Every game is a new one and you shouldn't let statistics get in the way of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also why should Germany fear Italy?? Historically speaking they both are good teams. Also look at Brasil vs Uruguay. Ever since Uruguay beat Uruguay, that little country has played Brasil hard because they believe they can beat them. Brasil can't get that stigma out.

Yeah but historically speaking Italy is 15-10-7 (Germany have never beaten Italy in competitive play besides penalty kicks) against Germany so from your logic Germany should "fear" the Italians every time they play and it will most likely result it a loss for them. And you a game that occured more than 60 years ago makes you think Brazil are scared of Uruguay? Please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you a game that occured more than 60 years ago makes you think Brazil are scared of Uruguay? Please. No, but he's right, sorry. The Maracanaço still has a huge psychological impact both ways, and he's right to say that makes Brazil nervous and give Uruguay confidence. It is just the way it is. In Europe all the strong sides respect each other, always, I don't think any of the top 6-8 ever go into a match vs another cocky or overly assured, this I know from having lived in Europe for a long time. Historical record does not matter too much, what matters is a qualification for a WC or a quarter final in a Eurocup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
