On April 5, Pyunik was hosted by Shirak Gyumri in the semifinals of the Fastex Armenian Cup. The match took a quite hard and interesting turn for both teams. Donald Kodia, the hosts' midfielder, opened the score first, and our team's great pressure in the opponent's penalty area gave its results only in the last minutes of the added time, when after Hovhannes Harutyunyan's corner kick, Juninho equalized the score and the game moved to the extra time, which also ended in a tie. The hosts were more accurate in the penalty shoot-out, winning 5:3.
