HOUSTON (AP) - Unheralded Guadeloupe made two early goals stand up for a surprising 2-1 victory over Honduras in the quarterfinals of the CONCACAF Gold Cup on Sunday in front of 70,092 fans at Reliant Stadium.
Guadeloupe will face Mexico, a 1-0 winner over Costa Rica in the first game Sunday, on Thursday in Chicago in the semifinals. The defending champion United States will play Canada in the other semifinal.
"We paid more attention to their name and history and didn't give them they attention they deserved," Honduras coach Reinaldo Rueda said. "That was our biggest sin."
