Fresno Fuego to Host Armenian National Team
By Jason Oliveira
01/17/2007 – With their season opener still a couple of months away,
the Fresno Fuego are in camp a little earlier this year as they get
set to host the Armenian National team Wednesday night.
Fresno Fuego Striker, Orlando Ramirez, says this is a great
opportunity for local players to play a national team.
Made up mostly of local talent, -the Fuego are no strangers to facing
opponents of superior competition. Having already played against
Major League Soccer’s LA Galaxy and Chivas USA on a number of
occasions.
While Armenia will use Wednesday’s match as a tune up for European
Cup qualifying, the Fuego coaching staff is still in the early
process of finalizing their roster for the upcoming season.
Fuego Coach Jaime Ramirez says, "We want to see where we’re at in
preparation for the next step."
