(Reuters) - Armenia coach Bernard Challandes has stepped down in the wake of a 2-1 Euro 2016 qualifying defeat by Albania on Sunday, leaving the country without a win after four games.
"It is written in my contract that we need to get a certain number of points to qualify from the group and in the worst case scenario, I should tender my resignation," Challandes told the Armenian Football Federation's website on Monday.
"I think it is fairly obvious to everyone at the moment, why I stepped down."
The Swiss took over as Armenia head coach in February last year. Armenia are bottom of Group I on one point.
