Monday Night Futbol

Copan Ruinas, Honduras – Soccer in Central America is a big deal: especially when it is a World Cup qualifying game and it is against the United States.

On the other hand, not many people in Copan have television so they have to resort to watching the game wherever they can.

Mountain Ball

Copan Ruinas, Honduras - Soccer in the hills of Honduras must be like basketball in the hills of Kentucky:  remote and played with a passion.  What amazed me most about this day was the game itself and the field full of rocks and hard dirt.
