Espinoza Doesn't Travel as Honduras Lose

Tuesday Honduras was in Spain to take on Catalonia in a friendly and Roger Espinoza had originally been named to the roster, but apparently did not travel. That may have been best for Espinoza because while it would have been a great opportunity to play against some good talent, Honduras was defeated 4-0 by the Catalonia side. The game was the last warm up friendly for Honduras before this January's UNCAF Nations Cup and Honduras' attempt to qualify for the 2011 Gold Cup. Word out of Honduras is that the roster for Honduras for that tournament will be announced today in a press release. It would seem a good bet that Espinoza will be on the roster, but we'll wait and see what happens.
