Match Summary:
Honduras tried to attack from the outset but were dominated by Italy for most of the first half. The Squadra Azzurra took little more than 20 minutes to score three goals, the 2-0 one being a superb header by Ambrosini on a cross from the right. Two minutes after getting his second goal for Italy, Gianni Commandini was on the score-board once more, this time with an own goal which instilled some hope into the Honduran time. The second half was very physical but also exciting even if neither team conceded another goal. Before a largely supportive crowd, Italy had several break-aways on long balls but failed to capitalise on their chances. Honduras never stopped pressing but just could not score.
