Canada vs. Honduras in World Cup qualifying: What you need to know
The Canadian men's team kicks off a hugely important World Cup qualifying window with a road game in Honduras on Thursday.
In the past, trips to Honduras have been fraught with peril and disaster for the Canadian men's team.
Canada hasn't won a game there in close to 37 years, and the last time it even picked up a point in the Central American country was in 2004.
It's been almost a decade since the infamous 8-1 loss, but a lot has changed for Canada since that day. The Reds are a completely different team, full of quality and depth at every position, and are now considered one of the strongest nations in Concacaf. That reputation will be put to the test when the men's team kicks off a hugely important World Cup qualifying window in Honduras this week.
Here’s what you need to know about Thursday's match between Canada and Honduras at San Pedro Sula’s Estadio Olimpico Metropolitano.
