YEREVAN. – Manager of Armenian national Vardan Minasyan assured there is sound environment in his team.

During a pre-match conference ahead of the World Cup qualifier, Minasyan said media likes to exaggerate the facts.

“In every game we have one task - to defeat the opponent. Most of the players are in good shape. Karlen Mkrtchyan has an injury. I hope he will be able to appear in the match. There are no weak opponents in our group,” Minasyan told reporters on Thursday.

Yura Movsisyan joined the national team later due to his trip to the United States, he said, adding there are no privileged players in the team.

Speaking about the players, he said Norair Aslanyan has a good potential. The head coach stressed that he would follow attentively the game of the youth team.

“Karen Muradyan and Varazdat Aronyan will play for the youth team today and will join the national team tomorrow. For me, the main goal is to defeat Malta,” he added.
