Team History and Achievements

Early Days of Armenian Football

Football teams in Soviet Armenia existed as far back as 1926. They played in the Trans-Caucasian Championship. This competition included teams from Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia.

Armenia became an independent country in 1991. Before that, Armenian players were part of the Soviet Union national football team. The Football Federation of Armenia was created on January 18, 1992. It then joined FIFA in 1992 and UEFA in 1993.

The Armenia national team played its first official match on October 14, 1992. They played against Moldova, and the game ended in a 0-0 draw. Since 1996, the team has taken part in qualifiers for both European and World Championships.

Key Coaches and Memorable Matches

The first head coach of the Armenian national team was Eduard Markarov. Other famous Armenian football players, like Khoren Oganesian, also coached the team. Many early coaches did not stay for long.

In 2006, Scottish coach Ian Porterfield took over. He led the team to some of its first international successes. Under him, Armenia won against Kazakhstan (2-1) and Poland (1-0). They also drew with Portugal (1-1), even with Cristiano Ronaldo playing. Sadly, Porterfield passed away from cancer.

His assistant, Vardan Minasyan, became the acting head coach. Minasyan learned a lot from Porterfield. In 2009, he officially became the head coach.

UEFA Euro 2012 Qualifiers: A Near Miss

During the UEFA Euro 2012 qualifying matches, Minasyan's team was in Group B. They played against strong teams like Russia, Slovakia, and Ireland. Armenia was seen as a weak team, but they surprised everyone.

They beat Slovakia twice (4-0 and 3-1) and Andorra twice (4-0 and 3-0). They also drew with Macedonia (2-2) and then beat them (4-1). They even held group winners Russia to a 0-0 draw. Armenia scored the most goals in Group B, with 22 goals. Henrikh Mkhitaryan scored 6 goals, more than any other player in the group.

The team almost made it to the final tournament. However, they lost a crucial match against Ireland (1-2). There was a controversial moment when Armenian goalkeeper Roman Berezovsky received a red card. Replays showed the ball hit his chest, not his hands. Despite protests, the decision stood. Even though they didn't qualify, Minasyan led Armenia to a record #41 FIFA ranking. The team was welcomed home as heroes.

Recent Campaigns and Nations League Success

After the Euro 2012 qualifiers, the 2014 World Cup and Euro 2016 qualifiers were not as successful. Armenia finished near the bottom in 2014 and last in 2016.

In the 2018 World Cup qualification, Armenia had a surprising 3-2 home win against Montenegro. This win affected Montenegro's chances of qualifying.

Vardan Minasyan returned to coach Armenia in the 2018–19 UEFA Nations League D. However, they finished behind Macedonia, including a tough 0-1 home loss to Gibraltar. Minasyan was then replaced by Armen Gyulbudaghyants.

For the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying, Armenia was in a tough group with teams like Italy and Greece. After losing their first two games, Armenia made a comeback. They beat Liechtenstein 3-0 at home and had a shocking 3-2 away win against former European champions Greece. They also beat Bosnia and Herzegovina 4-2. Despite these wins, Armenia finished fifth in their group and did not qualify for UEFA Euro 2020.

In the 2020–21 UEFA Nations League C, Armenia was considered a small team in a group with strong opponents like North Macedonia and Georgia. They started with a loss but then beat Estonia 2-0. Due to the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War, Armenia had to play their home games in Poland. They drew with Georgia and Estonia.

However, in November of that year, even without their star captain Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Armenia achieved a great comeback. They beat Georgia 2-1 in Tbilisi and then surprised North Macedonia 1-0 in Cyprus. These wins helped Armenia get promoted to the 2022–23 UEFA Nations League B. This also meant Armenia could get a playoff spot for the FIFA World Cup or UEFA Euro 2024.

For the 2022 World Cup qualification, Armenia was in a group with strong teams like Germany and Iceland. They started with a 1-0 win against Liechtenstein. Then, they surprised Iceland (2-0) and Romania (3-2) at home, topping the group for the first time. This raised hopes for a first World Cup qualification. However, Armenia did not win any of their last seven games. They lost 6-0 to Germany and drew 1-1 with Liechtenstein. Armenia finished fourth in the group.

Armenia has two main stadiums for football: Hrazdan Stadium and Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium.

Hrazdan Stadium

Hrazdan Stadium was built between 1969 and 1970. It was finished in 18 months with money from the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation. The stadium is named after the Hrazdan River. It is the biggest stadium in Armenia, with over 70,000 seats. The stadium opened on November 29, 1970.

The Armenia national team played home matches here until 2000. Many Armenian football clubs also used Hrazdan. In Soviet times, it was one of the largest stadiums in the Soviet Union. Hrazdan was the home ground for Ararat Yerevan. Its first official match was on May 19, 1971, when Ararat Yerevan beat Kairat 3-0. The stadium hosted Ararat Yerevan's wins in the 1973 Soviet Top League and the 1973 and 1975 Soviet Cup.

The Soviet Union national football team played only two matches at Hrazdan in 1978. They won both games. The stadium's capacity is now 53,849 seats. Hrazdan was fully renovated in 2012 to host national team matches regularly. However, Armenia has not used Hrazdan since October 12, 2012, when they played a World Cup qualifier against Italy. Today, Hrazdan is mostly used by Armenian football clubs and for other sports events.

Republican Stadium

The Republican Stadium was renovated in 1999. Since 2000, it has been the main home ground for the Armenia national team. The stadium was built in 1953 and finished quickly. It can hold 14,968 people.

From 1953 to 1999, it was known as Dinamo Stadium. In 1999, its name was changed to "Republican Stadium named after Vazgen Sargsyan." This was in honor of Vazgen Sargsyan, an Armenian war hero and former Prime Minister who passed away that year. Local clubs like Pyunik and Ulisses also play their home matches here.

In 2008, the stadium underwent a big upgrade. This improved the playing field and added a high-level VIP section. These changes helped the stadium meet UEFA standards.

Team Look and Kits

Jerseys and Colors

The home kit colors used to be the Red-Blue-Orange of the Armenian tricolor. These colors were on the first national team jerseys. The meaning of the colors is:

  • The Red stands for the Armenian Highland and the Armenian people's fight for survival. It also represents their Christian faith, independence, and freedom.
  • The Blue means the Armenian people's wish to live under peaceful skies.
  • The Orange represents the creative talent and hard-working nature of the Armenian people.

For the Euro 2012 qualification matches (2010 and 2011), Armenia's home colors were red-blue-red, made by Hummel. In May 2012, Armenia changed to all-red home kits and all-white away kits, made by Adidas.
