The ‘best of scenarios’ would mean a victory by 2 or more goals at the crossroads of Haiti vs El Salvador, a match that will open the billboard on Thursday in Group B, as both teams aspire to tie points to the team to lose in the Honduras vs Canada match that will be played later tomorrow.
Should there be a winner between Haiti and El Salvador, he would expect Honduras and Canada to ‘give their all’ in the star match of the day, as a defeat by any of them would leave them exposed as far as unlike goals, aspiring to sneak in the second place of the platoon, which would put them like rivals of the Mexican Selection, leader of Group A.
If Honduras beat the Canadians, it would automatically qualify for the semifinals of the Pre-Olympic, regardless of other results, as it would accumulate seven points and be unattainable for the rest of Group B teams and face the United States.
In the event of a tie, the ‘H’ would also be among the top four in the competition, as it would record five units in the table and, alongside Canada, would be in the semifinals. Of course, Honduras would be first in the group by goal difference and would face the United States in the same way.
On the other hand, if Honduras loses to Canada it will stay with four points and it will all depend on the result between Salvadorans and Haitians, as both accumulate one unit in the table. In this scenario he would be the rival of Mexico.
