In an interview with the Russian-language daily Sport Express, Andrei
Arshavin, an attacker and captain of the Russian national team who
plays for the English Premier League team Arsenal, spoke about his
team’s and his competitor team’s chances in the UEFA Euro 2012 draw.
"Slovakia is a tough competitor that likes to and knows how to
counterattack. As for Ireland, there are first-class stars among them
such as Robby King, Daffy and O’Shea, and a lot of other high-ranking
football players. Andorra, as one of the smaller countries, is the
most uncomfortable place to play: the playing field is in such poor
condition that you don’t even think about football.
"I have never been to Armenia. But when I learned that, till now,
Sargis Hovsepyan, whom I have not seen for 10 years, is still playing
[there] … it would be interesting to see him," said Arshavin.
