The match between LA FC and Columbus Crew as part of the Concacaf Champions Cup was not only a sporting event but also an occasion to honor Armenian actors Vache Tovmasyan and Karen Karagulyan, who recently conquered Hollywood.
The actors, who played key roles in the Oscar-winning film "Anora," were invited to the stadium as honored guests. During the match, they were introduced to the audience, presented with commemorative jerseys, and greeted with applause by the fans.
Recall that at the 2025 Oscar Awards ceremony, the film "Anora" received five statuettes, including the award for "Best Picture of the Year."
Vache Tovmasyan and Karen Karagulyan, who played the roles of Armenians and spoke Armenian in the film, have become symbols of success and pride for their country.
After their triumph at the Oscars, the actors continue to be in the spotlight. Their appearance at the football match was another confirmation of their growing popularity.
