Para los aficionados al fútbol, el 14 de octubre de 2009 es una fecha que jamás olvidarán.

Ese día, Honduras clasificó al Mundial Sudáfrica 2010
tras ganar 1-0 a El Salvador y darse el empate 2-2 entre Estados Unidos y Costa Rica.

Con el gol de Carlos Pavón y el resultado que envió a la repesca a Costa Rica, Honduras se quedó con el tercer boleto directo de la Concacaf, detrás de Estados Unidos y México.

Habían pasado casi 30 años desde la última vez que Honduras clasificaba a un mundial de fútbol, con su participación en
España 82. De esta manera, Reinaldo Rueda
lograba la hazaña de Chelato Uclés.

Mañana, 15 de octubre, la historia podría repetirse en Kingston, donde Honduras deberá ganar o empatar para hacer realidad el sueño mundialista de millones de hondureños.

+ Opine: ¿Cree que Honduras clasificará mañana a Brasil 2014?
