Mexico heads to the Olympics as CONCACAF's under-23 champion. Honduras goes to London with two players suspended.
That's the upshot from Monday's title game in the region's Olympic qualifying tournament, in which El Tri prevailed, 2-1, on Miguel Angel Ponce's volley late in overtime in Kansas City, Kan.
Marco Fabian de la Mora also scored for Mexico, which rallied from a deficit after Romell Quioto's header gave the Hondurans a 48th-minute lead.
Both sides qualified for the Olympics with semifinal victories Saturday.Source: http://espn.go.com/blog/los-angeles/soccer/post/_/id/15619/olympics-ponce-gives-mexico-the-crown
