BEST FOOTBALL PLAYER WILL LEAVE FOR SWEDEN

 

Levon *****jyan, the best Armenian football player of 2007 was in Sweden recently, where he was negotiating with the local “GAIS” club. Returning from Sweden, *****jyan informed that he had signed an agreement with the Swiss club for 4 years and would leave for Sweden by the end of the week.

 

“GAIS” is one of the best clubs of Sweden founded in 1894. The team had serious success in 1987, getting the Sweden Cup. Currently 10 players are involved in the team, among them is Levon *****jyan. The talented football player considers that “GAIS” may be a spring-board for appearing in other top-level teams. “Everything depends upon me. I think that I will have more opportunities to attract the attention of famous clubs. Many football players remain unnoticeable in Armenia”.

 

*****jyan has been playing in “Pyunik” since 2003. Before “Pyunik” he was playing in “Kotayk” and “Zvartnots” clubs. *****jyan will leave for Sweden with his wife and daughter.

Brilliant Sharapova wins Australian Open

 

 

Maria Sharapova has won the Australian Open, beating Serbia's Anna Ivanovic in a thrilling final in Melbourne. It's the twenty-year-old Russian star's third Grand Slam title. Sharapova won Wimbledon in 2004 and the U.S. Open in 2006.

 

She beat Ivanovic 7-5 6-3 in a tense women's final on a sweltering centre court in Melbourne Park. The victory makes amends for Sharapova's defeat to Serena Williams in last year's final.

 

After the match an emotional Sharapova said she handled the pressure well and took her chances.

 

"This is just incredible. If someone had told me in the middle of last year I would be standing here in front of you with the big one I would never have believed you," she said.

 

Along with the title Sharapova gets a cheque for $US 10.3 million.

 

Sharapova needs only the French Open title to complete her set of grand slams

Sport: Useless but true

 

GUARDIAN SPORT PAGES; Pg. 16

 

 

 

Tennis ace David Nalbandian, among Britain's torturers in this

weekend's Davis Cup tie, is of Armenian descent - as was Andre

Agassi. This means that Armenia is a more successful tennis-playing

nation than we are, based on Grand Slam finalists in the last 20

years

I assume they are not counting people of English descent from the United States, Australia, or Canada. ;)
