Cameroon-born goalkeeper Edel Bete has returned to the Armenia squad
for the UEFA EURO 2008~Y qualifiers against Finland and Serbia.
Erzrumyan in form Coach Ian Porterfield has recalled the AFC Rapid
Bucuresti custodian while FC Ararat Yerevan's fine run of league form
has persuaded the Scot to give midfielder Artur Minasyan and striker
Nshan Erzrumyan - who has scored 13 league goals this season - their
first international call-ups. Porterfield will have to do without
injured trio Romik Khachatryan, Artavazd Karamyan and Aratashes
Bagdasaryan for the Group A games and midfielder Hamlet Mkhitaryan
has been omitted as he is currently without a club.
