Derry missed a string of chances as they were held by the Armenian
visitors in the first leg of their Champions League qualifier at
the Brandywell.
Pat McCourt went close in the opening minutes when he beat two
defenders before having his shot tipped over.
Ciaran Martyn should have scored after the break but he tamely
side-footed wide after good work from the impressive McCourt.
The return leg will take place in Yerevan next Wednesday.
"We created enough chances to win the game and I'm disappointed as
we should have won the game," said Derry boss John Roberston.
"But in Europe it's important not to concede a home goal - if we nick
a goal over there, which we are capable off, then we've got a really
good chance.
"They are a good side but we are still in there and we are still
fighting."
