Sports: Under 17 team ousted


Armenia ’s Under-17 national football team finished third in Group 2 of the second qualifying round and failed to enter the final tournament that will be taking place this May in France.

Armenians must have taken only first place in the group to enter the final stage, however two losses and one victory were not enough for that.

After 2-0 defeat suffered from England on March 24 Armenia still had chances for France but only in case of its victory over Norway and England’s draw or defeat from Iceland.

On March 26 Armenia did its best winning 4-1 over Norway.

Two Years Minus
A1-Plus

Today (April 2) was marked as the two-year anniversary of television station A1-Plus being removed from the airwaves in Armenia. The oppositional station has been denied a license despite repeated bids, and is seen by many as evidence of government suppression. It has continued its news service at www.a1plus.am
