Our team is gaining more and more experience with every match, Chief
Coach of the Armenian national football team Vardan Minasyan told
media, Friday.
"I will not speak of Ireland today. I will do that only after the match
vs. Macedonia. I do not think that encouragement after the impressive
victory over Slovakia will affect the team. It is surprising that
Macedonia is on such a low position in the list in spite of its good
games. They failed only the first match vs.
Slovakia," Minasyan said.
Asked what was the secret of 4:0 score, the coach said that success
is important but the quality of the game is a necessity. "I can see
my team in the EURO-2012 final, indeed, but I'd not like to catch the
ball before the bound. The team has a backbone that shows impressive
games. The general professional analysis of our team's game can be
made only after the qualifying matches. Nevertheless, we have made
a big step forward," he said.
On October 5 Minasyan's team will play vs. Macedonia in Yerevan and
on October 11 vs. Ireland in Ireland.
Armenia stunned Slovakia with four in Zilina Tuesday to blow Euro
2012 qualifying Group B wide open. Armenia scored all their goals in
the second half in Tuesday's win in Zilina. Yura Movsisyan put Armenia
ahead in the 57th minute with Henrik Mkhitaryan (70), Gevorg Ghazaryan
(80) and Artur Sarkisov (90) adding the further goals.
Armenia have now also moved into the frame for qualification. Russia
leads the Group on 17 points - two ahead of the Republic with Armenia
and Slovakia a further point off the pace.
