Switzerland and Honduras played to a scoreless draw in a match in which both teams had at least a chance of qualifying to the next round. Honduras however would need to win and hope for big Chilean win while Switzerland had it slightly easier. This being the case as Switzerland could get by on a win against Honduras with either a Chilean win or draw or even a Spanish win; providing they did not end up with a better goal difference yet all this proved academic as Spain beat Chile.
As for the match, it was one in which both teams at least tried to win with the Swiss showing why theirs is a defense which allows few goals. It however is unfortunate for the Swiss that where their defense is one to prevent goals from being scored, their offense is not one to score many goals. Honduras, for their part showed some of their Latin flair yet were no more successful in scoring then their Swiss rivals; whom they would play to a 0-0 draw.
In conclusion, I would say though both teams are out of the world cup; at least Switzerland can claim to have beaten the European champions and having only conceded one goal even if they only scored one goal themselves. Honduras on the other hand though they did not even manage a goal, at least can leave with a draw though as a personal note I would add that I remember their performance in 82 where they were unfairly eliminated thanks to nonexistent penalties against both Spain and Yugoslavia.
