I don’t know which other national teams call up players to give them match fitness in NT rather than club. What is consistency worth when the results and the play is shit? Turkey is a team we do very well against historically, a number of draws and minimal losses even in recent years, in fact, should have gotten a draw this year too. In away game definitely not nearly as confident.
Imagine how we Boca fans feel…
How’s Zelarayan doing at least?
Real shame that Armenia were down to 10 men for most of the game, but with how bad their defending was they’re honestly lucky it was only 2-0, but what can you do with a whole man disadvantage
If you include a friendly against Ireland in March, they drew or lost by one goal in eight of their last ten matches, before a 5-0 away defeat to Croatia and a 0-2 home loss against Wales. They’ve played creditably against many of the stronger teams in their group, so this will feel like a big relief for them
We didn’t yet play them away so don’t want to jinx it, but against Croatia they really looked terrible
To be fair, Latvia made you sweat too
Easiest money I’ve won in my life
Here lies Armenia’s hopes and dreams for Euro qualification
Damn
Yes much like the Armenian team, it is a joke
Except for the last part. They’re honestly lucky they only conceded 1 goal while up a man.
Thank you.
Our biggest rivals lending us a helping hand in these trying times ♥️🙏
how did armenia went from making us sweat through our buttcracks and nearly missing the 3 pts to losing against latvia with one man down???
To be fair, Latvia made you sweat too
My guess would be they decided to play Briasco at striker lmao.
ohhhhh. Thanks for the explanation (man, Latvia now have the funniest chance of just playing god with the group lmfao, aka doing a Venezuela in 2018 WCQ and just proceed to eliminate someone like Venezuela did to Paraguay despite being last and Paraguay needing just a point to qualify yet Venezuela defeated them, due to having yet to play Turkey and Croatia and if they beat them both even if they wont qualify, they will 100% send everything to the final day lol)
Yeah I’ve been following Zelarayan’s career pretty closely. I live in Canada so I’ve seen multiple games on TV and also when he was playing for Belgrano in Argentina. It would’ve been cool to see him in Europe. I think he would’ve done really well for himself in a country like Belgium.
And thanks for your support. Armenia is my go-to counter to cheer for. I have a great grandfather on my dads side that is Armenian. One of the largest Armenian diasporas in the world is in Argentina.
