YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 14, ARMENPRESS. The Armenian national football team is already in Gibralatar and have held their first training ahead of the UEFA Nations League clash, the Football Federation of Armenia said.

The team is staying at The Rock Hotel - It has been described as "one of the Mediterranean's most famous hotels," and as "an institution in Gibraltar and the Mediterranean." Built in 1932 by John Crichton-Stuart, 4th Marquess of Bute, the hotel is set in a 3.6-hectare landscaped garden.

We were told that at least two flights are scheduled on the match day during the game,” the FFA said.

Victoria’s surface is artificial turf, and meteorologists forecast rains for the coming days. The match will take place November 16, 23:45 Yerevan time.
