The Honduran press and fans are still enraged following the defeat once morest Mexico at the Azteca Stadium last Tuesday and the “public enemy” of the Catrachos is currently the referee Iván Barton, whom a group of Hondurans, presumably reporters and fans, met to shout “thief” right on the flight out of Mexico City.

The video circulating on social networks shows the Salvadoran whistler Barton sitting in one of the emergency exit places. Seconds later, the group of Hondurans inside the plane call him a “criminal” and ask for applause – ironically – for the supposed “robbery” committed at the Azteca Stadium.

Among the comments towards the referee, one of the passengers jokes regarding a “delay in departure” of the flight, drawing irony regarding the time added by Barton in Mexico-Honduras, when he decreed -originally- that there would be 9 additional minutes in the complement, which became 12′ and it was then that Tricolor scored 2-0 that equalized the aggregate.

“We want to congratulate Iván Barton for the gift given to Mexico. “Bravo, Barton, criminal!” is heard in the video published by the Honduran media Futbol Total on Instagram.

What do they say in Honduras regarding the defeat once morest Mexico?

The reactions were immediate and Diario Diez, the most important newspaper in the sports field in that country, did not spare its accusations, accusations and criticism once morest Concacaf, the Mexican National Team and referee Barton for what happened at the Azteca Stadium, in where the greens won in a penalty shootout, with the controversy of the triple execution of the same charge for the Aztecs.

“Robbery”, “Robbery”, “Rateros” were part of the adjectives used by the Catracha press in the face of the impotence of elimination in the Quarterfinals of the Concacaf Nations League, as well as losing the opportunity to get a direct ticket to the next Copa América.

Furthermore, one of the vice presidents of the Honduran Federation accused before the Mexican press that “Concacaf has a line” to always help Mexico, especially when a place for the next Conmebol tournament in the United States was in dispute.
