    The Armenian Football Association has made the decision to appoint
    Vardan Minasyan as the new head coach of the nation's senior national
    side with immediate effect.

    The 36-year-old was previously employed by Armenian champions Pyunik
    Yerevan and has signed a contract that runs until the end of the Euro
    2012 qualifying campaign.

    Armenia were paired with Russia, Slovakia, Republic of Ireland, Andorra
    and Macedonia during last week's draw for the Euro 2012 qualifying
    campaign and Minasyan has made it clear that the Armenians have to
    focus on spot four in the table.

    "We were drawn into a very strong qualifying group, where Russia are
    clear favourites. Slovakia and Republic of Ireland are also very
    strong opponents but we will do our best to provide them all with
    tough games. I hope we can finish in fourth place," said Minasyan to
    reporters upon his presentation.
