How they qualified An away win in Mexico and strong home form secured the third automatic qualifying spot behind Costa Rica and the USA. World Cup high A 1-1 draw against hosts Spain in Valencia in their first ever World Cup finals match in 1982. They drew their second match against Northern Ireland before losing to Yugoslavia. World Cup low Vladimir Petrovic’s 88th-minute penalty for Yugoslavia in that final game in 1982 denied Honduras the glory of a place in the second round and allowed hosts Spain to progress. Familiar faces Maynor Figueroa (Hull), Juan Carlos Garcia (Wigan), Roger Espinoza (Wigan). The manager Luis Fernando Suarez. A more stable figure than his Uruguayan namesake, the Colombian – who led Ecuador to the second round in 2006 before losing to England – has taken Honduras to the finals. Anything else is a bonus. How in danger he is? 2/10 Most likely to light up Brazil ... Carlos Costly will have commentators in a race to the bottom for transfer puns though it is US-born Anderlecht midfielder Andy Najar who may be the one who is in the shop window. Most likely to be sent home in disgrace ... Jerry Bengston left the squad during a run of qualifiers last June. “He is not injured. The issue, frankly, is between Jerry, the Honduran coach and the Honduran federation,” his club said. Bengston returned to the side to score vital goals against Mexico and Costa Rica but it remains an uneasy accord. Title odds: 500/1 The stereotype is ... Win, lose or draw they just want to party, soak up the atmosphere and put themselves in the shop window for a move to Europe. The reality is ... They desperately want to win a game at a World Cup. By any means possible, even nefarious ones. And maybe party a little. What they're known for: Being laid back 40 per cent Coffee 12 per cent Wilson Palacios 22 per cent Macaws 26 per cent How Brazilian are they? Not at all, at least on the basis of their 5-0 defeat to Brazil in Miami last month. How Google translates the national anthem Pigeons waves with their shields, a volcano. Behind the bare summit there is a bright sun shines. How long does it last? Seemingly forever. The Bohemian Rhapsody of national anthems. How to dress like their fans: A penchant for face paint makes many fans look like a cross between the Blue Man Group and Kiss. Commentator's go-to stat They have yet to win a game in six attempts at World Cup finals.

晋级之路 客场战胜墨西哥以及强大主场优势下助其获得小组第三，继哥斯达黎加、美国之后直接晋级世界杯决赛。 世界杯上的光辉战绩 洪都拉斯队在1982年首次闯入世界杯，首战坐镇主场的西班牙，1比1战平，第二场比赛又战平北爱尔兰，最后一场输给前南斯拉夫。 世界杯上的低谷时刻 1982年的世界杯决赛上，前南斯拉夫球员弗拉基米尔·彼得洛维奇（Vladimir Petrovic）以第二轮开场88分钟的点球击败了洪都拉斯，东道主西班牙得以进入下一轮比赛。 知名球星 赫尔城：梅诺·菲格罗亚（Maynor Figueroa ） 维冈：胡安·卡洛斯 加西亚（Juan Carlos Garcia ） 维冈：罗杰·埃斯皮诺萨（Roger Espinoza ） 主帅 苏亚雷斯（Luis Fernando Suarez）在洪都拉斯的教练职位比在起乌拉圭和哥伦比亚任职时期要更加稳固一些。他曾在2006年率领厄瓜多尔闯进第二轮比赛，之后输给了英格兰。在本次世界杯，他又带领洪都拉斯队闯进决赛。好好犒赏这位主帅是必须的。 下课几率:2/10 最可能点亮巴西的球星 卡洛斯·科斯特力（Carlos Costly）将会成为许多评论员的重点赏评对象，尽管安德来赫特（Anderlecht ）的美国籍中场队员安迪·那亚尔（Andy Najar ）有可能成为众人瞩目的焦点。 最可能蒙羞回国的人 杰里·本斯顿（Jerry Bengston）曾在去年六月的预选赛进行期间离队。他所在的俱乐部方面表示：“本斯顿没有受伤。问题出在他与洪都拉斯主帅和洪都拉斯足联之间的争执上。”虽然本斯顿后来又归队参加了与洪都拉斯与墨西哥和哥斯达黎加的比赛，但是问题双方依然没有完全讲和。 夺冠几率：500/1 人们印象中的洪都拉斯 输也好，赢也好，打平手也好，他们只是想要参与其中，享受比赛氛围，在欧洲赛场上一展风采。 球队实情 他们渴望在世界杯上赢得比赛。想尽任何办法，甚至不择手段。也许就是想参与一下。 标志性元素 落后国家：40% 咖啡：12% 威尔森·帕拉西奥斯（Wilson Palacios ）：22% 金刚鹦鹉：26% 有多少巴西色彩？ 一点都没有。至少从上个月的迈阿密热身赛以0比5败给巴西的成绩上看，没有。 谷歌如何翻译洪都拉斯国歌 一群鸽子挥动着翅膀，在高高的火山背后，火红的太阳闪耀着光芒。 国歌时长 似乎永不停息。国歌颇有波西米亚狂想曲风格。 如何扮成洪都拉斯的粉丝 喜欢脸彩的粉丝们看起来像是蓝色军团和吻的结合。 评论员常用的解说词 他们参与过六次世界杯决赛，但未创下获胜记录。
