San Pedro Sula, Honduras.
Real España returned to victory in the Honduran National League after two consecutive defeats. He did it by defeating a Honduras Progreso 3-0, which at the end of this day 14 of the Clausura 2023 Tournament became the new basement.
An excellent Jhow Benavídez found the right path, with two great goals, to rescue the Machine when it needed it most and recover the smile that his coach Julio ‘Palomo’ Rodríguez had erased from his face.
It was not easy for the aurinegro team, in front of them they had a rival who came out to propose and look for the game. The progreseños looked better in the first half, they had chances, but without the necessary forcefulness to hurt Luis ‘Buba’ López. Ilce Barahona was the one who looked for the goal the most with two shots deflected from the Spanish goal.

Ramiro Rocca and Pedro Báez were not in the Machine, in fact the Paraguayan ended up leaving for the young Daniel Carter and the Argentine striker was missing in that episode of the match.
The only one that Báez had was in the 36th minute when he caught a cross from Darixon Vuelto from the left and his shot went up. Earlier Carlos ‘Chapetilla’ Mejía had warned with a shot that Rafa Zúniga controlled without problems.
At 38′, the Colombian Harold Lasso overflowed from the right, sent the cross and José Domínguez wanted to surprise everyone with a heel shot that hit the side of ‘Buba’ López’s cabin.
JHOW’S PUNCH APPEARS
For the second part, Honduras Progreso started with the same rhythm, always looking to go to the front. Domínguez tried with a free kick that passed over the horizontal of the aurinegro goal.
