Bulgaria threaten to lodge FIFA and UEFA complaint against Armenia

On Thursday, the Bulgarian national football team arrived in Armenian capital city Yerevan’s Zvartnots International Airport, where the Armenian fans “welcomed” them quite aggressively.    

Bulgarian Football Union President Borislav Mihaylov is in Yerevan, too, and he threatened to lodge a complaint to FIFA and UEFA for such reception in Armenia, Gong.bg reports. 

To note, Armenia and Bulgaria will face one another in their penultimate 2014 World Cup qualifier group match.
