Honduras substitute Carlo Costly scored twice in five minutes before Enner Valencia's 89th minute strike earned Ecuador a share of the spoils in a 2-2 friendly draw in Texas on Tuesday. Ecuador, who had held Argentina to a 0-0 draw in New Jersey on Friday, opened the scoring with a 16th-minute header from forward Jaime Ayovi at the Compass Stadium in Houston. Costly equalised in the 63rd, five minutes after coming off the bench, when striker Jerry Palacios headed the ball down to him in the penalty area. The China-based striker added his second goal, a fine left-footed shot into the top corner, in the 67th and Honduras appeared on course for victory when Ecuador left back Juan Carlos Paredes was dismissed nine minutes later.
