After the 1-1 draw with Wales, which almost deprived his team of its chances of participating in Euro 2024, Armenia's head coach Alexander Petrakov commented on the setback.
- "Today we lacked skill again. I'm very sorry that we had an own goal. After the game, Nair Tiknizyan came up to me and compared his own goal with Yarmolenko's in the Ukrainian national team. I told him that you can't compare yourself with others. Everything is in the past. We need to look ahead and prepare for the match against Croatia. The kids did everything right. There was a great desire, but there was an auto-goal," said Petrakov, in particular.
