Victor Bernardez is one of Honduras coach Reinaldo Rueda’s most tried and trusted performers and has been a familiar face in the national side since the Colombian took on the job in 2007. A speedy and astute central defender, Bernardez has performed a valuable man-marking role for Los Catrachos in recent years.<\/P>
A cornerstone of the Motagua side that won the UNCAF Club Championship in 2007, Bernardez had a number of trials with English and German clubs before being put through his paces by Anderlecht. The Belgian side liked what they saw and offered him a contract in 2009, with the Honduran settling in straightaway and becoming a valued squad member.<\/P>
A rock at the heart of the Honduras defence, he was an inspirational presence throughout their successful qualifying campaign for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™. Having now collected over 30 caps for his country, he has the experience and ability to shine on the biggest stage of them all. <\/P>","FA149E2002A43ED77C24C62CDFF094A5":"2","0FCC2F07B9D0EBFD":"San Jose Earthquakes","30A86FC0880FF75E":"187cm","0C852134AA40B2DD":"1","18E9F76C307DDD99":"133","09702F2B27619389F07D77F05427B135":"2012-1-1","F27CBDD6332F20A59321B0F4E9CF2AB8":"5","82CBDCB828DBDF896209A361CA981BCF":"","A7F9B63E25A659E5":"Victor Salvador Bernardez Blanco","5E8F53D0A504BF86":"Victor Salvador Bernardez Blanco","0A9B0394F31973591937C38F2F471911":"Anderlecht,Lierse,CD Motagua,CD Vida","9EBD0BFF9766B31DEF99430639A2F292":"Anderlecht","4678B5349347B7EB":"83kg","8DC362CCE065919BCF40467C0DE6A7E8":"","DA5E7C1A0F1CB829A66A16651D2472FD":"Honduras","2B5572269355781B0007104B7181FA88":"1982-5-14","e_index":1};
