Roman Berezovsky and Robert Zebelyan have returned to an extended
Armenia squad for the UEFA EURO 2008~Y qualifier against Finland.
Second chance
Goalkeeper Berezovsky and striker Zebelyan refused call-ups for last
month's home game against Finland due to club commitments, but have
been given another chance for the trip to Helsinki on 15 November.
Ecuador-based Khose Bilibio has been left out by coach Ian Porterfield
for disciplinary reasons however, while centre-half Robert Arzumanyan
misses out through suspension. Brothers Arman and Artavazd Karamyan
are doubtful as visa problems may affect their travel.
Armenia squad Goalkeepers: Roman Berezovsky (FC Khimki), Gevorg
Kasparov (FC Pyunik), Feliks Hakobyan (FC MIKA), Armando Hambartsumyan
(PFC Slavia Sofia), Edel Bete (AFC Rapid Bucuresti).
Defenders: Karen Dokhoyan (FC Krylya Sovetov Samara), Sargis Hovsepyan
(FC Pyunik), Valery Aleksanyan (FC Pyunik), Aleksandr Tadevosyan
(FC Pyunik), Armen Tigranyan (FC Pyunik), Egishe Melikyan (FC Stal
Alchevsk).
Midfielders: Karen Aleksanyan (CSF Zimbru Chisinau), Agvan Lazarian
(FC Pyunik), Artavazd Karamyan (AFC Rapid Bucuresti), Artur Minasyan
(FC Ararat), Samvel Melkonyan (FC Banants), Romik Khachatryan
(Anorthosis Famagusta FC), Hamlet Mkhitaryan (without a club).
Forwards: Armen Shahgeldyan (FC MIKA), Edgar Manucharyan (AFC Ajax),
Aram Hakobyan (FC Banants), Ara Hakobyan (FC Stal Alchevsk), Nshan
Erzrumyan (FC Ararat Yerevan), Robert Zebelyan (FC Kuban Krasnodar),
