      I contacted a friend from the Netherlands who is an avid soccer fan and follower of Armenian soccer players and this is what he told me about Norair Mamedov:

      He and his parents came to the Netherlands 12 years ago. Untill 12 years ago they lived in Azerbaijan. They are Armenian, so I assume that they changed their name because.. well, you know what Azeris do when they find Armenians in their territory. Norair lived in Azerbaijan as Nourai.

        The FAF (First Armenian Front) knows about him. They are like scouts, they know majority of the players that play abroad and bring them to the FFA's attention. They are the ones who found Ozbiliz, they are the ones who found Boghossian, etc.

        Thanks for the info Federate. On the Armenian football forum i follow they didnt want to say anything about his past as there is an azeri forum and they check in every now and then and they didnt want to start a feud.

          So have any offers been made to Norair from the FFA?

                So Armenia lost to Lithuania 0-3 and I see that Araz didn't play, I assume because of his injury.

                  I watched the game, Armenia played well but went down a man in the 55th minute. After Yura came on they started playing more aggressive but the man down affected them. Sad result to a good game.

                    How did Sarkisov do? And will Araz play in the next game?

                      From what i saw Sarkisov played well, he had chances, made some nice runs. No clue about Ozbiliz.
