    "ARARAT 73" - 40 YEARS AFTER: AFTER TRIUMPHS...

    11:52, 20 February, 2013

    The sole Armenian sports periodical "The Armenian Athlete", which was
    published 40 years ago thus referred to "Ararat 73": "Today's success
    of the Armenian footballers is the most significant one. They will
    leave a trace in the memory of the future generations as well."

    Dwelling on the fact of winning the USSR Cup and becoming a champion
    the columnist of the newspaper stated that despite a number of major
    and minor obstacles the team managed to came out with credit.

    Not only good players, but robust coaches as well secured Ararat's
    victory

    YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 20, ARMENPRESS. Another analytic article being much
    more noteworthy and inspirational, is also dedicated to "Ararat 73",
    which realized our dream. A Russian expert refers to the legendary team
    in a beautiful and vast article entitled "The Two Cups of 'Ararat'". He
    speaks about how our team playing "open football" displayed itself
    in the stadium. "One needs not only skills to play "open football",
    but courage as well. These two should be characteristic not only to
    the players, but to the coaches as well."

    In those days the Soviet and international media published a number
    of astonishing articles and materials dedicated to the triumphs of
    "Ararat". Lebanese "La Avyu Leban" periodical dedicated an entire
    page to the matches of "Ararat". In an article entitled "'Ararat'
    Charms the Lebanese-Armenians" states that it's not only the Armenians
    in the USSR, who follow "Ararat's" matches, but the whole Armenians
    living throughout America, Asia, and Europe.

    The "Armenpress" photographer Felix Arustamyan, who used to work for
    "The Armenian Athlete" in those days, compared the triumph of "Ararat"
    with the times, when Tigran Petrosyan was declared the chess champion
    of the world.

    Varvara Hayrapetyan listed the "biography" of "Ararat 73"
