Canada's men's national team is currently locked into a quadrennial cycle of testing itself against Honduras. Back in 2012, the team went to San Pedro Sula and got spanked, 8-1. In 2016, it can be pleased to report that it did significantly better, losing only 2-1.

The Canadians shocked their hosts by taking the lead in the 35th minute through Manjrekar James. The defender towered over a thicket of players at a corner and headed past 'keeper Donis Escober.

Honduras had a lot of the ball and most of the chances throughout, but were made to wait until first-half stoppage time for the equalizer.
