Varujan Sukiasyan, the chief coach of the Armenian youth football team,
is pleased with the September 8 Armenian-Czech Republic meeting.
According to Varujan Sukiasyan our footballers demonstrated their
abilities to the full. "We could compete with tall, fast and athletic
footballers due to our strategy. We did not surrender even a minute.
Our rivals were physically well-fit and pressed an attack at the
second match."
Sukiasyan stated that some of the footballers were not ready for
the meeting. "They didn’t participate at the first league meetings
or simply substituted the injured footballers for 5-10 minutes. The
Czech team had participated at the World Cup Finals and involved
footballers from higher clubs."
The Armenia-Ukraine meeting is due on September 12 at Republican
Stadium.
"I can say the meeting is worth watching. Though our team was beaten
0:4 at the first meeting, we had 5-6 chances to score a goal. We must
do our best to beat our rival," said the chief coach.
Currently, the Armenian team takes the second place at the Euro-2009
2nd qualification group. The team has got four points. The fixture
table is topped by Turkey with six points. The latter beat Lichtenstein
3:2 on September 8.
Ukraine takes the 3rd place with three points.
