Mkhitaryan: I hope Armenian fans will support me in Moscow this time, too

In Moscow, Armenian national football team captain and Manchester United (a.k.a. Red Devils; England) midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan spoke about his expectations from the Red Devils’ forthcoming UEFA Champions League group stage match against PFC CSKA Moscow.

“The last time in Russia, we played against [FC] Rostov,” Sovetsky Sport (Soviet Sports) sports newspaper of Russia quoted the Armenian international as saying. “At that time, I was happy to see numerous Armenian fans in the stands, who were supporting me, [and] had come with [Armenian national] flags. I hope that it will be like that this time, too. I’m very grateful to them for their support.”
