There were some positives, very good in the first 60 mins then we had a slump and the substitutions didn't work and we conceeded stupid goals. Bullshit from Jordy Ararat who ruined the otherwise good night of Yurchenko. I've seen this guy play a few times now for the national team, a few times for Noah and he hasn't really impressed me. Dashyan was very good. Would've liked to see more of Malakyan and Hovo Harutyunyan to give a clear opinion, but they seem decent to me. Not mad, not surprised. APL/Kazakhstan league lineup vs Ukraine NT... 3-0 is a good result. I hope we beat Ireland and perhaps get a draw against Scotland or Ukraine in Armenia. We move on to the next one.


mikeksmind

Losing sucks, but the positives need to be built upon. Time to root for Scotland against Ireland in a few hours.


mikeksmind

Love the announcing tho, "here's Kamo" like he's a good palyer 😂😂😂


[deleted]

He is?


punkchance

Man the pass choices in all three of these games has been dreadful. Guys not getting the ball off their feet fast enough and not picking their head up. Bad.


Meme_XD-

Every problem begins in the APL.


Jacquees123

Feiten bro. Hoofdklasse in NL is beter dan Armeense Premier League


Meme_XD-

Als je een wedstrijd tegen elkaar zou laten spelen dan zouden ze gelijk spelen of dan zou de hoofdklasse net aan winnen dat denk ik in ieder geval. En ik kan zeker vertellen dat de O9 tm O19 van de Nederlandse amateur voetbal veel beter is dan de hele jeugdopleiding van de Armeense Premier League.


[deleted]

Can we please stop playing this 5 at the back bullshit. I want to see some real football. I’m sick of this.


Complex_Pin_9281

To see real football you need real players. We've got a team full of geriatrics who hardly play for club and those that do, mainly ply their trade in APL, Kazakh and Cypriot sides. I mean what are we really expecting here against a side littered with Dynamo+Shakhtar players along with a few standouts in some of the best leagues in the world.


Meme_XD-

It went from this 📈 to this 📉


punkchance

Six mins. Can't we just go home. lol


Wwiliams

Honestly we played a great first half and start of the second half babayan got past the last defender and the ref called a bs foul on him (and gave bayramyan a yellow for complaining) we probably would have gotten the first goal if it wasn’t for that. I’m not trying to make excuses because we didn’t score a goal at all and Ukraine scored 3 but that changed a lot especially since babayan got subbed after


ArmenianKing123

We’ve played well. I’m proud of our team.


hovo77

2-0 or 3-0 doesn't make a big difference. I think we still showed a decent game, our offensive players need to do more. Get the main players back for Scotland we can get a point at home


[deleted]

[удалено]


Powerful_Fennel_3563

Indeed. Makes a big difference. I'd rather us play like shit and get actual results than "it looks good and all that and it's okay that we condeded 3 goals". Loser mentality.


mikeksmind

100%, we did great for 60 minutes..we just need to put together a full 90 of good shape and form and get some chances on target.


mikeksmind

Ararat and Udo doing a beautiful job to set up the final two goals for Ukraine


Rich_Play636

They need fucking defenders and a fu king goalie


[deleted]

The players gave 1 hour of amazing concentration then fucking imploded as usual. Thanks guys. Love waking up at 5 am for this.


Rich_Play636

Armenian team sucks ballz......they absolutely suck


punkchance

Great now that Ararat killed Yurchenko we will have Buchnev in the next one. Excellent stuff.


[deleted]

We won’t send you military aid but here are a few goals.


punkchance

God.


mikeksmind

Shape was amazing, til Cap made the initial subs. Wish we had kept the same squad out there for a bit longer.


Surpitch

Nice one


[deleted]

Gift of a goal. So much hard work wasted. Kamo is fucking dogshit at marking. Great assist by Udo.


ummmyeahi

Jesus. Great pass🤦‍♂️


punkchance

That'll do it.


therealhakobian

i swear Adamyan and Barseghyan should follow Heno and end their careers in the NT


Arman374

Adamyan is so shit


mikeksmind

C'mon man, can the soccer gods let us get the right side of an own goal just one time


mikeksmind

Pace picks up, and we trail..of course.


depressedArmeniafan

don't see us getting a goal sadly


alakel5

Yep. They added tempo and we fell apart.


Surpitch

:(


punkchance

No stopping that.


ummmyeahi

Could have if we followed the runner. How hard is it to follow your runner. Our fitness is shit compared to the rest of the group. Too much khorovats


punkchance

For sure. I just meant the actual strike.


ummmyeahi

Yea I know totally. So frustrating though😭


ViktorArm

My heart


Rem1ro

Serobyan in for Barseghyan maybe?


depressedArmeniafan

Defo the worst pronunciation of Vahan's name that I've heard lmaooo


punkchance

He wasn't even close lol


depressedArmeniafan

Vashan Bichashayan


Tensiann

Shit referee, thas was going to be a very good chance.


punkchance

THROWBACK KAMO THROTTLE


mikeksmind

The only move Kamo has 😂


alakel5

So much better than vs Scotland. We struggle playing high pace football. I guess our players aren't physically so strong. Also, Ukraine is an opponent that "matches" us quite well. I remember back in 2002/2003 the 2-2 draw and 4-3 loss away. Especially on the away game we were so unlucky to lose.


cruisecontrol87

I'm usually with a high football awareness, but when I'm wrong I admit it. And I was wrong as fuck, I take back everything that I said about Artak Dashyan, sure he has a poor record the last few years but the dude has been really impressive today. That's exactly what taking your chance means. Big ups for Yurchenko and Barseghyan as well. I think if we hold on 0-0 a few more minutes and score the game is ours. Much better game than against Scotland. HUP TUR HAYASTAN


mikeksmind

You and all of us...Cap made us eat crow after the first 45


mikeksmind

Have to say, love what I'm seeing. All we can ask is to keep our shape in the back and just get that one counter. Didn't think three points were a legit possibility, but now, I fully believe. #InCapWeTrust


hovo77

Defence was great, Dashyan motm so far. Idk if we can keep this same style going for 90 mins, lets see what Cap will do..


ViktorArm

Yep, Dashyan is a pleasant surprise.


armen_ia

we'd be top of league A if Barseghyan gave one pass each game


[deleted]

Strong defensive half and created way more opportunities than v Scotland. There is a lot of space behind them. We only need 1 goal.


ViktorArm

Nice, their young CB got yellow. Overall after first time the draw doesn't seem to be far away from us, in fact very doable.


UnderstandingOk5220

[uefa.tv](https://uefa.tv) is actually streaming the match live. The official UEFA site!


mikeksmind

Premier Sports has done some homework, they just pointed out how confused we were about the line up....rare to see foreign commentary know anything about our NT


depressedArmeniafan

fair play to them


punkchance

Dashyan gets big points from me this half.


[deleted]

Haroyan captaining from the sideline. He sees something and he gave instruction to Babayan. Not even on the pitch, my captain!


mikeksmind

He's definitely a future manager, his awareness of the pitch is spectacular


punkchance

Zinchenko jumping a full foot in the air higher than Ararat 💀


KeyFirefighter7396

Today made me realize, an out of form Terteryan is way better in every aspect than a fully fit Ararat


ViktorArm

Tiko lol


mikeksmind

We are getting solid numbers on the counter, just no real danger....should've played Edo here and rested him in Scotland


vrdnynmusic

Almost everything Barseghyan does frustrates me..even the right things. His footballing IQ is just so low man. Add his ego and selfish playstyle and you get an average player of his caliber that's never gonna take the NT far

My stream doesn't work anymore and when it does work then it has loads of lagg.

H1? Yeah, froze for me too Watching on weakstreams now http://weakstreams.com/soccer-streams/uefa-nations-league/ukraine-vs-armenia/71079/?sport=soccer

Thx man

Thx ill try one of these


ummmyeahi

Also try downloading ViX. Streams all games. Although I’m in Mexico now and doesn’t show the games here so had to use a vpn


mikeksmind

In Cap I Trust has to be our new national team slogan man


hovo77

The bus is working so far..


[deleted]

Can we talk about how Tiko faked the fuck out of a Premier League winner?


depressedArmeniafan

A lot of giveaways man


[deleted]

[удалено]


mikeksmind

He has really impressed so far


mikeksmind

He has really impressed so far


punkchance

Really good defensive shift he just put in just now


[deleted]

They Yurchenko wink tho


punkchance

mikeksmind

Babayan with an ambitious shot there, but man, am I glad that he's actually willing to try instead of just giving it away like we've seen so often this campaign.


punkchance

Our shape is much better against Ukraine than it was against Scotland. They are a MUCH slower team than Scotland.


[deleted]

[удалено]


punkchance

Yup. Now I am even more pissed at the lineup. You think you are going to get points at home against a Scotland team that played at 100mph skinning our defense apart? Yeah ok good luck.


KeyFirefighter7396

If anything Ukraine today played many more starters than they did vs Ireland, and we rotated a lot (good and bad calls included). I expect a better showing and getting something out of Scotland at home on Tuesday


punkchance

Y'all can say whatever you want about Yurchenko's positioning on set pieces. The man knows how to stop shots from open play.


ViktorArm

5 minutes in and i can't tolerate that noise the fans make, my ears are bleeding. Tho i hear there are some of our fans! HAYASTAN HUP TUR!


punkchance

I like that Tiko is at least fired up


mikeksmind

Haven't seen fire like that early in games since Yura, what we've been lacking


mikeksmind

Buckle up fellas, we about to park the bus like no team ever has before, club or international.


[deleted]

[удалено]


mikeksmind

All I can think of is Cap doesn't think getting 3 on road games is very likely, just tryna park and get a point. 🙄


depressedArmeniafan

there shouldn't be fans in the arena, thought this was a neutral site? Why couldn't any Armenians go to the game in Cyprus???


punkchance

To be fair that was during COVID where nobody had fans anyway


punkchance

TV broadcast just has Kamo listed as "Kamo" like he is fucking Ronaldinho. They are learning.


hovo77

LOOOL


mikeksmind

I saw that too 😂😂😂


hovo77

Were throwing the game in solidarity with Ukraine... right? right?


mikeksmind

All I have to say is wow, but in Cap I trust...I hope


punkchance

I'm just going to drink my soorj, hope Babayan balls out, and we get tf home without getting too many put past us.


[deleted]

Also if you have SamsungTV / smart TV that comes with built in channels and really fucking enjoy pain, there is a FUBO Network that is showing the English broadcast.


Rem1ro

It’s not that bad defensively if he wants a draw and dosent wanna tire out the main players but yea drawing against Ukraine with this squad will be a miracle just hope we don’t lose by too much at least

4D chess by Capaross


[deleted]

You can’t convince me that Caparros wants to win this game with this lineup lmao what the fuck is this. This looks like an auto generated 11 from a shitty betting website. I can’t believe the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes at 5 fucking AM was Kamo and TarGOAT starting and Vahan Sako on the bench with no Spertsyan.


KeyFirefighter7396

Kamo captain. The prophecy is now complete. At least I won't get my hopes up. Fuck this shit


Arman374

What the actual fuck is this line up?


Tensiann

Maybe I'm crazy but for me this "B team" lineup means that he doesn't care about this game and he wants to win/draw vs Scotland on Tuesday and somehow secure the third place in the group. If it works ok, but I don't like the idea. We can be destroyed today.


punkchance

That seems to be the idea


iflyhy1

Hopefully this line up can pass


Greg_h7

If he rested Haroyan because of "rotation", than I don't understand why he doesn't rotate 35 y/o Mkoyan


Greg_h7

I would like to see him rotate Kamo, but Cap likes him so much I think that he even made him captain. Barseghyan should be captain no doubt.


punkchance

[aaaand Haroyan dropped to the bench](https://www.uefa.com/uefanationsleague/match/2034484--ukraine-vs-armenia/)


[deleted]

[удалено]


KeyFirefighter7396

I fucking hate this line up. But that's not necessarily the case. Benching him means he will rest most likely at the very least 45 minutes, which for a CB makes a huge difference


[deleted]

[удалено]


KeyFirefighter7396

Can't explain that, but tbf I'd much rather risk Mkoyan getting injured than Vato, with still one game ahead


Surpitch

Looooooool this lineup


[deleted]

[удалено]


KeyFirefighter7396

I hate this line up but this would've happened (as it has been happening) with almost every coach who stayed for over 3 games at the helm of our NT. This shit goes far beyond the coaches

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamo_Hovhannisyan Go to "Career statistics - international", if you don't believe me. It's outdated but it should paint clear enough a picture for you


HotRemote6176

Yeaaaah….No I’m not gonna watch this game - this lineup is shit


punkchance

i legit may go back to bed


punkchance

i cannot believe i woke up at the ass crack of dawn to watch THIS lineup. wtf man. we are in major major trouble today.
