(Reuters) - Honduras' World Cup playoff against Australia will be "one of the most important games of our lives" and the Central American side believe their hopes of reaching Russia depend on a first leg win at home this weekend, winger Romell Quioto told Reuters.

Honduras finished in fourth in the CONCACAF region of North and Central America and the Caribbean thanks to a last-day win over Mexico and will meet Australia at home on Nov. 10, before heading down under for the second-leg five days later.
