Goals: Honduras—Costly 31'; Ecuador—Valencia 34', 65'
An enthralling 90 minutes saw Ecuador earn its first three points of the 2014 World Cup, defeating Honduras 2-1 in Curitiba. Carlos Costly opened the affair in the first half. A strike from distance gave Honduras an early 1-0 lead, but more importantly, ended the second-longest scoring drought in World Cup history (510 minutes). The euphoria, however, would be short lived. An equalizer from Enner Valencia brought Honduras back to reality just three minutes later. A towering header in the second half served as the final blow.
