In the Norf, Honduras won 1-0 in El Salvador, forcing Costa Rica to hold on to the 2-0 lead they'd wrested into before half-time. Bizarrely, though, Michael Bradley and Jonathan Bornstein put in goals to send Costa Rica into the play-offs instead. Honduras' largely home-based squad go into the World Cup for the first time since 1986.
