Armenia scored a 3-0 victory hosting Kazakhstan in a friendly Tuesday
night as part of continuing preparations for the 2014 FIFA World Cup
qualifying tournament starting in September.
Striker Gevorg Ghazaryan scored twice before Yura Movsisyan's third
goal at the end of the first half. The second half of the game ended
goalless despite Armenia's having ample goal scoring opportunities.
A minute's silence was observed at the Republican Stadium in Yerevan
before the start of the match for the three Armenian soldiers killed
in an Azeri cross-border incursion on Monday as well as the 15 Kazakh
border guards killed on an outpost near the border with China last
week. Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan and his visiting Kazakh
counterpart Adilbek Jaksybekov attended the game.
The Armenian national soccer team is expected to play its next friendly
match against Belarus at Yerevan's Hrazdan stadium on August 15. The
game will be the last before Vardan Minasyan's side engages in the
qualification campaign. The Armenian Football Federation says the
August match will also be a sort of testing for the reconstructed
Hrazdan stadium before it hosts the highly anticipated Armenia v
Italy game in October.
