Honduras did extremely well in their qualifying campaign and they are certainly an emerging force in football although they have plenty more improving to do if they are to have a good World Cup.

Honduras won't be the worst team that graces the World Cup , but they could be close, and it is between Switzerland and them for bottom place in the group, with Honduras expected to take it.
Not only will Honduras finish bottom of the group, its unlikely they will even get a goal against some tough opposition.
