HONOR RESTORATION GAME

Before the international break, the last match of the 8th round took place at the Urartu stadium, where Urartu FC hosted Noah FC. As you know, teams are neighbors in the tables and in case of a successful outcome of the game they can improve their positions in the tables. Urartu FC was defeated in two previous matches, it is clear that this does not suit Lions, so in this game the guys had something to prove.

CHANGES IN LINE-UP AND COMPOSITION

Changes in the line-up: instead of Annan Mensah, Karen Melkonyan and Jonel Desire, Petr Ten, Armen Manucharyan and Narek Grigoryan started the match from the first minutes.

SYMBOLIC DAY AND MINUTE OF SILENCE

As you know, all matches of the 8th round began with a minute of silence in honor of the memory of our heroes who died in the Second Artsakh War. This day has become symbolic for Urartu FC, since on September 29 last year, a long-term employee of Urartu FC Simon Israelyan left for the front. The team entered the field with an image of Simon Israelyan on their jerseys.

PASSIVE FIRST HALF

The first half was held in a calm struggle, Urartu FC had a territorial advantage, but Noah FC successfully defended. There were episodes when the players of Urartu FC could score a goal, but in fairness I must say that the fixed zero draw reflected the first half.

UNREALIZED MOMENTS

In the second half, the attacks of Urartu FC were sharper, they became more dangerous, but something always prevented them from effectively completing the attacks. At the very beginning of the second half, a penalty kick was awarded at the Noah FC goal. The goalkeeper of Noah FC Grigorii Matevosian broke the rules in his own penalty area towards Livio Milts. The referee appointed a penalty, injured Livio Milts approached the ball, but missed. The former goalkeeper of Urartu FC saved his team from an coming goal.

TENCE ENDING AND MISSED GOAL

The ending of the match took place with alternating attacks. Yes, Urartu FC was in the role of dictating the rules, but attacks of Noah FC, especially counterattacks, were no less dangerous. In one of the episodes, the crossbar saved Urartu FC from an coming goal. At the last minute of the match, the players of Noah FC were able to open the score of the match. Vadim Paireli scored a goal. This was the only goal in this match.
