Special to the Armenian Weekly
Much like a prize fighter in a bruising title bout, Armenia has taken its lumps during this qualifying campaign, but the team is still standing entering the final round. Just as they did in Euro 2012 qualifying, the Armenians enter the final match with something to play for. That is more than can be said for a lot of other teams in the Confederation.

Minor correction. There are only 3 teams (and not 4 as the article says) still in the shot of getting a playoff berth as only Bulgaria, Denmark and Armenia have a Chance of a play-off berth. Czech is out as they can only accumulate 9 clean points (points excluding those won against Malta). the 8 other 2nds have already accumulated 10 points each.
That is correct, good point.
Since it is only the best 8 runners-up of the 9 groups that advance (once the points gained from the lowest team in each group is subtracted) , there is the further layer of uncertainty for members in Group B. Armenia would end on a maximum of 12 points with a win in Italy and after results versus last placed Malta are discarded. This 12 point total still may be the lowest 2nd placed total of the 9 groups, and as a result would see them eliminated. Basically what that means is Armenia needs a lot of help, both within the group and across other groups as well.
