USA vs. Honduras: Players to Watch During Semifinal Matchup

We’ll just call this one the rubber match.  Not necessarily known as a heated—or evenly fought—matchup (the United States is 14-3-4 against Honduras all time), the Stars and Stripes and Los Catrachos have established quite the interesting rivalry over the last five months.

Gold Cup 2013: Stars Who Have Had Breakout International Performances
