YEREVAN, APRIL 6, NOYAN TAPAN. Frenchman Bernar Kazoni, chief coach of Armenian national football team, was relieved of his post. Ruben Hayrapetian, President of the Football Federation of Armenia, declared at the April 5 press conference that the coaches of the national team will be replaced until a normal team is formed. R.Hayrapetian mentioned that the main discontent of the Football Federation and football-players themselves was caused by the coach's strange selection of players who practically aren't ready for playing in the national team. The President of the Football Federation of Armenia said that the name of the new coach of the team will become known during the nearest 10 days. According to R.Hayrapetian, this will be a professionally prepared specialist and a foreigner. "Armenia gave many distinguished football-players to the world but at present we have no qualified coach," he mentioned. Bernar Kazoni has held the post of the chief coach of Armenian national football team since August 2004. In this period the national team lost 5 out of 7 matches, drew 1 match and won only 1 game in the selection tournament of 2005 championship.
