After a ball was played back to Grenada keeper Reice Charles-Cook, he tried to shake opposing forward Jerry Bengtson, who foiled the move and poked the ball into the open net in the 28th minute. - Gold Cup fixtures, results, schedule and more Edwin Solano doubled the lead in the 52nd minute after taking a through pass from Deybi Flores and dribbling in for a wide-open breakaway tally. Late in the game, Honduras added insurance goals from Johnny Leveron at the 86th minute and Romell Quioto on an Alberth Elis assist in the 88th minute for the four-goal margin.
