Davit Barseghyan beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 23. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad24 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Hayq

Robert Bencun and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Door shut on Patrick Handzongo

Hayq asked and Ararat said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match22 Aug 2026

Aleksandar Glišić sends Hayq past Sardarapat

It finished 1‑0, and it was Aleksandar Glišić’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Hayq.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Erik Azizyan

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Words at Hayq training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ashot Hambaryan is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Davit Barseghyan is a square peg at Hayq

The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.

Squad24 Aug 2026

19 new faces, and Hayq are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Aleksandar Glišić takes the honours

Marked 7.55 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Hayq had the best player on the pitch.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A day Aleksandar Glišić will not forget

4 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Match15 Aug 2026

Aleksandar Glišić leads the rout of Pyunik-2

4‑0, and Aleksandar Glišić took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Hayq tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Match12 Aug 2026

The cup run ends for Hayq

0‑2 against Araks Ararat, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Vintage Aleksandar Glišić — 9.97

At 33 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 9.97, and nobody on the pitch better.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Hayq

Robert Bencun and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

The game went through Fabio Simões Ribeiro — 7.31

Marked 7.31 on 14 actions at both ends of the pitch. Midfielders like this get described as unspectacular by people who have never tried to play against one.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

The crowd has taken to Erik Papikyan

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

The dugout17 Aug 2026

Andrej Mikoláš gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match15 Aug 2026

Hayq settle it inside twenty minutes

2 goals before the ground had finished arriving. Pyunik-2 spent the rest of the afternoon playing a match that had already been decided, and everybody in the stadium knew it.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Vilmos Borsos gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Vilmos Borsos has just signed for Hayq, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Andrej Mikoláš keeps Hayq in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Vilmos Borsos stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Vilmos Borsos and Hayq agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Robert Bencun in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Hayq this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Pyunik tell Hayq: Hayk Tatosyan is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Match8 Aug 2026

A bad afternoon for Hayq against Mika

0‑2 to Mika, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Market10 Aug 2026

Karen Ghazaryan steps up from the Hayq academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Karen Ghazaryan has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market10 Aug 2026

Ararat Grigoryan steps up from the Hayq academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Ararat Grigoryan has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market10 Aug 2026

Hayq promote Hayk Simonyan from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Hayk Simonyan has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
