Soccer fans can get refunds for their tickets to a FIFA-sanctioned soccer match in Baton Rouge that was called off.

The match was scheduled for Sunday, but was canceled after some Honduran players refused to play because of poor field conditions at Olympia Stadium.

A spokesman for the Baton Rouge Capitals Soccer Foundation says they were expecting about 6,000 fans at the match between Honduras and Barbados.

He says the Hondurans also grumbled about transportation, lodging, and other matters.
