The second game during Matchday 4 of the Copa Centroamericana 2017 will be between Honduras and Costa Rica this Friday, January 20, 2017 (3:30 PM Pacific) at the Estadio Rommel Fernandez in Panama City. This match is expected to be one of the most battled games of the short tournament making it a must-watch encounter.
Honduras has thus far been the best team of the competition after winning three out of three matches played. The team coached by Jorge Luis Pinto defeated Nicaragua (2-1), El Salvador (2-1), and most recently the host Panama (1-0). With 9 points, the ‘catrachos’ are in 1st place in the six-team table and have already secured their pass into this summer’s Gold Cup competition. Against Costa Rica, Honduras has the opportunity to earn more points in their new goal which will be to win the tournament.
Costa Rica has not fared as well as their Friday counterparts considering they have earned 5 points after three matches. The team coached by Oscar Ramirez sits in 2nd place and near qualification into the Gold Cup after tying to El Salvador and Nicaragua (both 0-0) and defeating Belize (3-0). In other words, the ‘ticos’ have faced the three weakest teams and have not been able to win two of them. This Friday they face their strongest opponent and if they hope to win the competition they are obliged to earn the win.
