Goran Pandev scored two goals Saturday to lift Macedonia to a 2-1
win over Armenia in the World Cup qualifier.
Pandev scored the first goal from the penalty spot after Albert
Sargsian fouled Goran Popov in the right corner of the penalty box
in the 29th minute.
One minute after the interval, defender Alexander Tateosian failed
to clear Velice Sumulikovski's cutting pass from the left, which left
Pandev one-on-one with Armenia goalkeeper Roman Berezovsky.
Edgar Manucharian, who substituted for Sargsian in the 51st minute,
narrowed the gap off Aram Voskanian's pass in the 55th minute.
The result had no effect on the Group 1 standings. Macedonia remained
fifth with eight points after eight games while Armenia has four.
