Armenian national team members are in a good psychological and physical shape and are ready for the UEFA EURO 2012 qualifier against Russia, chief coach Vardan Minasyan said.

“The main task remains unchangeable: we must show beautiful football,” he told journalists on March 25.

Minasyan said he has already decided on the start team. “I have some doubts that should be discussed with the other coaches. As you know, our central fullback Ararat Arakelyan withdrew because of the injury. But we have Valery Alexanyan and Arthur Yuspashyan,” he said.

Armenia coach also voiced hope that fans will encourage the players for a victory. “3 points we can get in case of defeating Russia will be our best award,” he said.
