Gevorg Ghazaryan scored two minutes into added time to secure the
visitors a famous victory that keeps them in the hunt in Group B.
Gevorg Ghazaryan scored an added-time winner to earn Armenia an
eye-catching victory against the Czech Republic in FIFA World Cup
qualifying Group B.
Buoyed by their 4-0 dismantling of Denmark last time out, the visitors
continued that momentum by taking a 31st-minute lead courtesy of Karlen
Lazarian. Michal BÃlek's Czech team were in need of a fillip and
Tomáš Rosický provided it by equalising 20 minutes from time. More
drama was to come, though, as Ghazaryan struck in the final seconds
to move Armenia level with their third-placed opponents on nine points.
Those bare facts only tell half the story of an intriguing contest
that burst into life when Michael Rabušic sent the ball centimetres
past a post. Armenia swiftly wrestled back the initiative, Lazarian
emerging from midfield and unleashing a 25-metre left-foot drive that
flew past Petr Ä~Lech.
The home team continued to probe after the break and finally broke
through when captain Rosický found the net with a venomous long-range
effort. Tomáš Sivok, Theodor Gebre Selassie and Michal Kadlec all
squandered decent openings and were made to rue their profligacy as
Jura Movsisyan swept downfield and supplied Ghazaryan, whose firm shot
squirmed beyond Ä~Lech. The Czech Republic must now pick themselves
up for their trip to Italy on Tuesday, when Armenia host Denmark.
