The plane with FC Pyunik made an emergency landing due to engine failure

An airplane carrying Armenia's vice-champion Pyunik made an emergency landing in the Norwegian capital Oslo, the press service of the Armenian Premier League reports. For this reason, the match of the third round of the Armenian championship between Ararat Armenia and Pyunik was postponed.

"Taking into account the statement of Pyunik Football Club that the team made an emergency landing at Oslo Airport due to engine failure while returning from the Norwegian city of Budyo, the FFA Football Department, having discussed the force majeure situation, decided to postpone the 3rd round match of IDBank Ararat-Armenia - Pyunik Premier League scheduled for August 14 as part of the tournament round," the APL said in a statement.

"Pyunik" played the first match of the third qualifying round of the Conference League with Norwegian "Budyo-Glimt" and lost 0:3.
