WC 2006 qualifier Armenia vs. FYR Macedonia: Macedonians optimistic
ahead of clash with Armenians

This Saturday the national team of Former Yugoslav Republic Macedonia
will play against Armenia in capital city of this country Yerevan.
Macedonians wont have much to play for here except for self esteem
and national pride considering their hopes for qualifying for the
World Cup have already vanished.
Serbian coach Slobodan Santrac (Slobodan Santrač) has said that
Macedonia will fight for all three points and that he hopes some new
players which he called up will prove his point, that they deserve
to put on the national jersey.
The Reds supporters hope that their side will sign in a victory with
the same result as in Skopje when Macedonia won 3:0 against Armenia in
their first match of qualifications, but that's doubtful considering
the Armenians improved a lot since then.
It's interesting that this match could have even get postponed
because the MAT airplane which took the internationals to Yerovan
was called off by the Turkish flight control, from an unknown reason.
After couple of hours of flying around Turkish territory, the airplane
finally got a permit to fly back to Skopje, but they still succeeded
to somehow arrive to Armenia this Friday.
Macedonian striker Goran Maznov who will most certainly lead the attack
with Goran Pandev has said: "We are in Yerovan to sign in all three
points. I am optimistic and I believe that we wont let our fans down,
and if we lose that will be a great personal disappointment for me."
Young goalkeeper Filip Madzovski is presumed to make his debut
between the guests posts while experienced defender Goce Sedloski
should coordinate the last line with Aleksandar Vasovski. Santrac
will have some dilemma who to place into midfield but its certain
that Velice Sumulikoski and Aleksandar Mitreski will lead it.
On the other side the national coach of Armenia Henk Visman isn't so
lucky as his colleague who has no concerns regarding injuries. Visman
will greet Macedonia without five of his standards, Hartjan Vardanyan,
Artur Petrosyan, Artvaz Karmyan, Artur Voskonyan and Andrej Movsisyan
are all ruled out because of injuries. Therefore he was forces to
call up 30 year old Albert Sargsyan from Amkara (Russia) who will by
this end his two year absence from the national team.
The match is scheduled to be played on 17:00 hours local time.
