YEREVAN. – It will be difficult to beat the Italian national team,
Armenian football squad manager Vardan Minasyan said during a press
conference on Thursday, NEWS.am Sport reporter informs.

“The mood [in our team] is very high. We have losses [that is, injuries
and suspensions]. [But] All the players are ready. This Italian team
differs from the previous ones in the sense that it demonstrates a
creative football. [Italy manager] Cesare Prandelli is tactically
the most knowledgeable coach in Italian football history.

Italy is a strong team, but it mostly plays a defensive
football-Catenaccio. Now, they also play an attacking style. It will
be difficult to beat them. Playing well is not enough to win; there
should be success, too,” Vardan Minasyan stated.

To note, the 2014 World Cup Brazil’s qualifying Group B match between
Armenia and Italy will kick off at Armenian capital city Yerevan’s
Hrazdan Stadium on Friday at 9pm
