Pandev double delights visitors
Saturday, 4 June 2005
Two goals in each half from Goran Pandev helped F.Y.R.
Macedonia to a narrow win away in Armenia in FIFA
World Cup qualifying Group 1.
Two Goran Pandev goals helped F.Y.R. Macedonia to victory
Pandev strikes
The S.S. Lazio striker put the visitors in front in the 29th minute,
nervelessly converting a penalty to break the deadlock. It was 2-0 a
minute into the second half, Pandev scoring his and F.Y.R. Macedonia's
second to give his side a two-goal cushion.
Manucharyan effort
That did not last long, however, FC Pyunik forward Edgar Manucharyan -
who will join AFC Ajax on 1 July - striking again having scored four
times against Hungary on Tuesday as Armenia reached the 2004/05 UEFA
European Under-19 Championship, their first international finals. The
home team were unable to find an equaliser as F.Y.R Macedonia held on,
moving on to eight points despite remaining fifth. Armenia, meanwhile,
stayed sixth.
