Vardan Minasyan's team confidently advanced past the quarterfinal stage, defeating "Urartu" twice—1:0 and 2:1—securing a place in the next round of the tournament.
The return match took place on April 1 at the Aven Football Academy field and ended with a 2:1 victory for "Ararat-Armenia." The first half belonged to "Urartu": Dmitry Tikhiy opened the scoring with a stunning goal. However, in the second half, "Ararat-Armenia" took control. First, an "Urartu" defender mistakenly sent the ball into his own net, equalizing the score, and in stoppage time, Alvin Tera scored the winning goal, finishing off a counterattack.
Now, "Ararat-Armenia" will join "Pyunik" in the Armenian Cup semifinals. The remaining two semifinalists will be determined in the matches "Van" vs. "West Armenia" and "Noah" vs. "Gandzasar." In the first legs, "Noah" and "Van" crushed their opponents with identical 3:0 victories.
