Late goal lifts Honduras over Canada at CONCACAF men’s under-20 championship
SAN JOSE, Costa Rica — The Canadians have made things difficult for themselves.
Jorge Alvarez scored in the 77th minute as Canada lost its CONCACAF men’s under-20 championship opener 1-0 to Honduras on Friday.
Canada (0-1-0) will attempt to bounce back on Monday when it faces Mexico in its second of three Group A matches. The Mexicans (1-0-0) sit first in the group after beating Antigua and Barbuda 3-0.
“We have to take heart from the way we played with the ball, especially in the first half, but we have to adjust now and rally the troops for the second match,” Canada coach Rob Gale said.
