Armenian players performed on equal level with their rivals only in one quarter and had the upper hand in other three.

The game got rather tense by the end. Armenian team conceded a bit, allowing the opponent to make changes in the score, but eventually won 82:80.

Vigen Eskijyan’s men had their previous and only win in the competition over Poland.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
