Honduras, which lost to the United States in World Cup qualifying, lost again in San Pedro Sula, falling, 2-1, to Panama on the opening night of the UNCAF Cup, the two-week Central American championship. Former Colorado Rapids striker Jorge Dely Valdes and brother Julio Cesar scored to beat the Catrachos. Honduras coach Ramon Maradiaga, who had just rejected an offer to coach Mexican club Leon, will be under increasing pressure to quit after this embarrassing loss. Costa Rica, which also lost to the United States in Hexagonal play, beat tiny Belize, 4-0, in San Pedro Sula. Rolando Fonseca, the UNCAF Cup’s all-time leading scorer (16 goals) had a hat trick for the Ticos. May 23 in San Pedro Sula Honduras 1 Panama 2.
