Carlos Pavon put Honduras in the lead from the penalty spot after 33 minutes and a distance shot from Marvin Chavez doubled the gap in the second half.

Honduras had already qualified and finish their qualifying campaign with a 100 percent record despite the absense of European-based players as Wilson Palacios, Maynor Figueroa and David Suazo.
