Donis Salatiel Escober Izaguirre (born 3 February 1981) is a Honduran football goalkeeper, who currently plays for Olimpia in the Honduran National League.

Club career

Born in San Ignacio, Escober started at Olimpia's youth side Juventud Olímpica^[2] and has played his entire professional career for Olimpia.

In March 2012, Escober was on the verge of breaking Motagua's Nicaraguan goalkeeper Róger Mayorga's 36 years old-record of 838 minutes without conceding a goal in the Honduran league.^[3] He did not make it in the end, after being beaten by a Marathón goal that left Escober only 35 minutes short of Mayorga's record.^[4]

International career

Escober made his debut for Honduras in a May 2002 friendly match against Japan and has, as of January 2013, earned a total of 17 caps. He has represented his country in 2 FIFA World Cup qualification matches^[5] and played at the 2003^[6] and 2007 UNCAF Nations Cups^[7] as well as at the 2009^[8] and was a non-playing squad member at the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup ^[9] and the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.

He has been an understudy to Noel Valladares for most of his international career.
