If the road was thorny, now Costa Rica stabbed the Selection of Honduras. The Ticos won in the last minute by 2-1 and the Qatar World Cup 2022 it is a fantasy.
Pain and sadness invades La Bicolor, it has been eight days of the octagonal of tragedy.
In the National Stadium of San José, the warrior spirit of the catrachos remained, they stood up, but it adjusted them. The Costa Rica of Luis Fernando Suárez breathed and maintains its options.
After eight rounds of the octagonal, the Catracho team is last in the tie with just three points and therefore it can be forgotten to qualify for the next World Cup.

Actions
The Central American classic, as expected, was not easy at all. The one who took advantage won. Again Keylor Navas was the figure of the Ticos when stopping countless shots to the goal.
The Bicolor had a good version on the grass, Alberth Elis was a shock on the right, but Keylor Navas kept him at bay.
At minute 11, Romell Quioto gave the first brushstroke in speed, crossed the ball and Elis, passed by.
Then, the best minutes came for the Ticos. In defense we sinned hard, and the Ticos hit first. Corner kick executed by Joel Campbell, and between the lower zone he connected with a header Óscar Duarte to nail the 1-0.
–
Honduras responded, post after Edwin Rodríguez shot, then Keylor Navas avoided goals from Quioto and Moya brilliantly.
And in the face of so much pressure, Maynor Figueroa enabled Quioto, he got rid of Duarte, to define Navas’ left post with category and celebrate the 1-1.

Painful
The Bicolor kept the momentum in the second half, although Costa Rica was more daring with the income of Bryan Ruiz and Celso Borges.
In the absence of the last quarter of an hour the catrachos advanced beyond the midfield.
After a minute, Edwin Rodríguez finished off again so that Navas, again, would shine at night. Later, Elis overflowed to center Quioto, but this time Keysher Fuller appeared and sent the ball to the corner kick.
–
The final minutes were heart-stopping, Quioto was again frank, but he finished off wide and Kervin Arriaga was knocked down in full backlash.
Already closing the duel, Johan Venegas saw Gerson Torres well placed and head buried Honduras with the 2-1.
Tico triumph and catracha disappointment. The tie continues to whip the Bicolor, which only has three points and six games ahead, but far from having options to at least guarantee a playoff.
