Latics stars Hendry Thomas and Maynor Figueroa enter the competition this afternoon in Honduras’ opening game against Chile, the first competitive match between the two nations.
Honduras and Chile go head to head in the group H game at 12.30pm, at the Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruit, live on ITV1.
Latics’ midfielder Thomas expects Chile to provide a tough challenge, particularly in his department.
“Chile are a tough team to play, they don’t give you any space and work the ball very well in midfield,” said Thomas, talking to Fifa.com.
“They’re the type of side that need everybody on their game to really click. So, when we have the ball we need to keep hold of it, and win it back quickly to be able to cause them problems”
Well pasted – and your views on this are?I think the likes on the Honduras will play well against Chile…Hopefully the will come 2nd in their group and progress so we can see the standards of Thomas and Fig play for their country :)
I personally think Thomas will be expecting a tough game.He shouldn’t find it too tough sitting on the bench. Unless it rains and/or the rain gets up
I know sometimes i make spelling mistakes and every now and then it may not make sense but what are you on about Donnelly?
7 of their starting XI are semi-professional players. To even make it to the World Cup is a massive achievement for them, but they’re never going to qualify. I would think Spain and Chile will make it through, if the Chileans performance is anything to go by.
It was certainly one of the more exciting games in an otherwise tedious World Cup so far, both teams played positive football.
