Honduras 0 Australia 0: Socceroos miss chances to take control

Tomi Juric missed Australia's two best chances as the Socceroos drew 0-0 against Honduras in their World Cup play-off first leg.

Australia missed a chance to take control of their World Cup play-off against Honduras, drawing 0-0 in the first leg in San Pedro Sula on Friday.

The Socceroos may be left to rue their failure to score an away goal after a dominant performance at the Estadio Olimpico Metropolitano.

The game's two best chances fell to Tomi Juric, who squandered a one-on-one opportunity before being denied by Donis Escober in the second half.

Honduras had brief moments but rarely threatened in front of their fanatical home fans.
