Yesterday Armenia was celebrating the victory. There were lots of people in the streets. FFA Chairman Ruben Hayrapetyan was following the match with a smile and applauses. There was such an impression that the victory wasn't new for the FFA Chairman.

- Really, I wasn't strained at that moment. I was following the game. Our football players were playing very well and I was just getting pleasure from the match.
