On loan Hibernian midfielder Jorge Claros got the last six minutes of his national sides shock 2-1 win over the USA at the Estadio Olímpico in San Pedro Sula, Honduras.

The USA hit first in the 36th minute with a well met volley from Tottenham Hotspurs Clint Dempsey but the Hondurans outdid that feat just four minutes later from a corner with a sublime bicycle kick from defender Juan Carlos Garcías left peg to level it up before half time. 

 Half time 1-1

Second half showed both teams going for the win but it was the Hondurans who grabbed it in the 79th minute with a tap in from striker Jerry Ricardo Bengtson Bodden after midfielder Óscar Boniek García Ramírez had drawn Evertons Tim Howard, off his line.
