    ARMENIA IN FIFA PROTEST AFTER WORLD CUP DEFEAT

    Emirates 24/7
    Sept 13 2012
    UAE

    Armenia have filed a Fifa protest about "poor officiating" during
    this week's 1-0 World Cup qualifying defeat in Bulgaria.

    The Armenians complained to world soccer's governing body about some
    decisions made by the referee and the treatment they had received
    from the home team, the football association said on its website
    (www.ffa.am) without giving precise details.

    The visitors finished Tuesday's Group B match in Sofia with nine men
    after Swiss referee Stephan Studer sent off Marcos Pinheiro in the
    73rd minute and Gevorg Gazaryan four minutes later.

    Bulgaria's Svetoslav Dyakov was also dismissed in the 73rd minute
    following a brawl involving players from both sides.
