The National team of Macedonia was not able to arrive in Yerevan
yesterday evening, as it was planned, in order to take part in the
match with the Armenian national team on June 4. The plane in which
the Macedonian team was coming to Yerevan was forced to return to
Skopje from Turkey.

After losing a day the Macedonian national team will arrive in Yerevan
today at about 8:00 p.m. Factually, the Macedonian footballers will
arrive only 24 hours before the game, which may considerably affect
the game tomorrow.

Besides, the coach of the Macedonian team has invited 8 new players
to the team among whom there are 2 goalkeepers. After this game it
will become clear which team will take the 5th place in the group.

Let us remind you once more that the Youth teams will play at 3:00
p.m. by local time in the Hrazdan stadium, and the National teams –
at 8:00 p.m. by local time in the Hanrapetakan stadium.
