EDGAR MANOUCHARIAN GAINS SELF-CONFIDENCE
A1+
31 March, 2008
For a long time Edgar Manoucharian, a rising Armenian football star
playing for Ajax of Amsterdam, couldn’t score for the Armenian national
team. Moreover, he has rarely been recruited to the national team due
to constant injuries. Manoucharian kicked his only goal three years
ago in an informal game with Macedonia.
At last, he brought victory to his team last week in a friendly
meeting with Kazakhstan scoring the only goal of the game. He told A1+
in an interview that this goal will boost his self -confidence and
let him score more goals. He also thanked his teammates for their
tremendous support.
Presently Manoucharian plays for the youth team of Ajax, and this is
likely to last until the end of the playing season. However, Edgar
hopes to be promoted back to the main team.
