Before the start of the new season, Urartu-2 team continues to hold friendly fixtures. We talked with defender Erik Piloyan about the young players included in the team, the upcoming season and the shape of the team.

ABOUT TEAM LEVEL AND NEWCOMERS

“We have newcomers who are practically not inferior to us in terms of their level. We played two friendly fixtures, we still need to fix a few things in our performance, but overall the preparation is going well. We need to play even more matches with the guys in order to understand each other well on the field. It seems to me that after a while, by the middle of the season, we will have a full-fledged team.”

 

ABOUT PREPARING FOR THE NEW SEASON

“It can be said that we are ready for the season, we have already adapted to the coach, and we understood what he wants to see on the pitch, so a good and friendly atmosphere reigns in the team. In any case, it takes a little time, it is true that we are showing good tactical football, but there is still a need to get used to everything.”

 

ABOUT THE UPCOMING OPPONENT

“We all know that Sevan FC is not a weak team, there are quite experienced good players there, we played with them last year, but this does not mean that we should underestimate ourselves. We will do our best to win this match, first, to give us a psychological advantage, which is very important at the beginning of the season, and then we will move forward.”

 

ABOUT THE GOALS AND EXPECTATIONS

“First of all, we will fight to take the highest positions, and why not, we will fight to be the champions. I think we can fulfill the expectations of both the coach and the fans. The most important thing is to be in a good mood, try to put all our energy into it and show our best side in the new season.”
