PanARMENIAN.Net - Yerevan will long remember the night that followed
the Armenian national football team's triumph over Macedonia in UEFA
EURO 2012 qualifier on October 7, the match that brought Armenia even
closer to the European Championship. Armenia proved that miracles
happen. The republican stadium was overcrowded with fans screaming
with joy and pride for the national team, who demonstrated a perfect
ability to concentrate and win.
Football is not just a game. It is something that can unite people and
fill them with ineffable emotions that overwhelmed all those in the
stadium that evening.
`It's a great day, guys', `We are proud of you. You are heroes', `We
will celebrate victories again.' Congratulations were everywhere - in
the streets and throughout social networks. Even Macedonian
journalists praised the Armenian team for an excellent style of play
and wished them to break through to the final stage of the
championship.
The players themselves are too shy to shout about their victories.
Although optimistic and hopeful, they did not even celebrate on the
threshold of an important match against Ireland.
Midfielder Henrik Mkhitaryan hopes that they will be able to open a
new page in the history of Armenian football.
`Of course, the match against Ireland will be decisive and hard but I
believe that our team can do much,' another midfielder Artur
Yedigaryan says.
Irrelatively of the result of Dublin match, Armenians love their team
and are grateful for the victories both to the brave and ambitious
footballers and their young and talented coach. And all will watch the
qualifier against Ireland from all over the world supporting the
squad's aspiration for success.
We love our team, who, we are sure, will again and again make us cry with joy.
