November 13 the national football team of Armenia will start
preparing for the Euro-2008 qualifiers with Portugal on November 17
and Kazakhstan on November 21.
Coach of the Armenian national football team Vardan Minasyan told
Armenpress that both matches are going to be difficult. As for the
Portuguese, they rally deserve the title of "European Brazilians:"
This is a strong and technically prepared team, one of the best
national teams in Europe.
Playing a 1:1 draw with Portugal in the match in Yerevan the Armenian
footballers proved that they are able to play with teams of that
rank. Their recent successful matches evidence that our players are
capable of competing with any team. The victories over Poland and
Kazakhstan, and the draw with the team of Serbia are also an evidence
of this," the trainer said.
Vardan Minasyan informed that Aram Hakobyan was not included in
the team.
Edgar Manucharyan has been invited from "Ajaks." A number of players
have yellow cards and must be cautious.
According to the coach, Armenia-Kazakhstan is going to be a hard
one because it is the last one in the tournament and both teams will
aspire to achieve best results.
According to Vardan Minasyan, the decision of the UEFA to cancel
the matches between Armenia and Azerbaijan deprived us of at least
three points.
Nevertheless, the Armenian team managed to improve its standing and
will now try to maintain the high level.
