Armenia beat Guatemala 7-1 yesterday in a friendly match ??!!
I was at the 6-0 game and the place was packed. But a good portion of it were Basijis. They were on the bottom level and started burning flags and yelling political slogans. It was when the Bahrain gov't was cracking down on Shia protesters. It was the first time I had ever seen police oppose basijis. When regular fans started fighting with the basijis, the police came and escorted them out.
Typically the stadium fills up against most Arab teams with a have a bad history with.
Well Macedonia is currently playing Azerbaijan and they are up 2-0 in the 40th minute . As expected one of the goals is scored by pandev.
Guatemala treated as a friendly for the hispanic community in California (where the match happened)
and their team was using it as moneygrab, to get paid by the AEG Group who organised it...
Armenia, however, were very competitive and played as if it was a world cup qualifying match... A lot of fouls and competitive play.
Heres some of the highlights -
EDIT: Also Mikhtaryan (Dortmund player) was absolutely amazing. A truely great hat-trick by him.
Finally we will see Team Melli back in action after 2 months.
I can't wait!
Today Team Melli hadn't got any trainings because we couldn't find anywhere to prepare ourselves before Macedonia match. How unprofessional this situation is.
