| A
Pyunic player is caught between his rivals,
but his team came out on top. |
Wednesday (July 16) FC Pyunic met with Icelandic
title-holders KR Reykjavik in a UEFA Champions
League's first qualifying round match in Yerevan
at Republican Stadium.
After controlling most of the match, the Yerevan
club managed a 1-0 victory on a 61st-minute goal
by Levon Pachajyan from a perfect cross pass by
Carl Lombe.
The home team had a chance to double its margin
in the 77th minute, but Rafael Nazaryan's penalty
shot was saved by Reykjavik goalkeeper Kristjan
Finnbogason.
The 1-0 victory provides a slim cushion for Pyunic
in UEFA standings, as it travels to Iceland next
Wednesday for a rematch at Laugardalsvöllur
stadium.
