Mexico progressed to yet another CONCACAF Gold Cup semi-last subsequent to edging Honduras 1-0 on Thursday. 

An early objective from Rodolfo Pizarro was all Mexico required in the quarter-last at the University of Phoenix Stadium, setting up a last-four conflict with Jamaica. 

Pizarro tapped in at the back post in the fourth moment as the safeguarding champions achieved the Gold Cup semis for the 6th continuous time. 

It was yet again a long way from persuading for Mexico, who have mentor Juan Carlos Osorio serving a boycott and a few stars missing after the Confederations Cup. 

Be that as it may, the early objective was sufficient, with Honduras – who achieved the last eight as the best third-put group in spite of neglecting to score in the gathering stage – once in a while debilitating. 

By and by, Mexico were greatly changed, with seven players clearing a path from the beginning XI that defeated Curacao last time out. Elias Hernandez, Hugo Ayala and Pizarro were among those named to begin. 

Jorge Luis Pinto rolled out only two improvements to the Honduras side that drew with Canada, as Ever Alvarado and Bryan Acosta came in for Jorge Claros and Carlos Discua. 

Mexico made an enthusiastic begin and they took a fourth-minute lead. 

Jesus Duenas got the ball on the left half of the zone and, maybe shooting at objective, his exertion went over the face, Hernandez perhaps getting a touch before Pizarro side-footed in at the back post. 

As the handles from Honduras flew in, Mexico kept on looking the more probable, and Jesus Molina let go over the bar in the 29th moment. 

Honduras, pegged back in their own half for a large portion of the opening 45 minutes, went close not long after the break. 

Romell Quioto's free-kick from separate constrained Jose Corona into a low spare before Mexico cleared the threat. 

There was at long last some start about Honduras in the second half, with Carlos Lanza constraining a clear spare from Corona in the 54th moment. 

Crown was expected to punch a corner off his line at the close post with 12 minutes staying as Honduras pushed for an equalizer. 

Be that as it may, regardless of a highly enhanced execution after the break, Honduras were not able discover an equalizer, Alfredo Mejia wasting their last possibility when he let go tortuously wide in the 92nd moment.
