The match between FC Urartu and BKMA Yerevan at the Urartu Stadium in the Fastex Premier League concluded with a 4-2 victory for the home side. FC Urartu's quick start set the tone as Sergey Mkrtchyan's goal just two minutes in, assisted by Artem Polyarus, showed their aggressive approach from the outset. This early setback for BKMA was compounded by an own goal that doubled Urartu's lead within eight minutes. Such an early two-goal lead provided a significant cushion for Urartu, allowing them to control the pace and flow of the match.

Despite a lack of corners from FC Urartu, their ability to convert their few clear chances was critical. Andrii Kravchuk's goal before the half-hour mark further solidified their dominance, highlighting poor defensive coordination from BKMA. In stark contrast, BKMA struggled to find their rhythm, with their set pieces not translating into tangible opportunities. Their increased possession of corner kicks did not translate into scoring chances, pointing to inefficiencies in their set-piece routines.

BKMA Yerevan's attempt to claw back into the game in the second half showed resilience. Davit Hakobyan’s penalty conversion and a goal from Narek Hovhannisyan in quick succession reduced the deficit, demonstrating BKMA's fighting spirit and ability to capitalize on defensive lapses. However, their inability to equalize was ultimately hindered by a lack of discipline on defensive transitions, contrasting with FC Urartu's structured teamwork and effective counter-attacks.

The game's final significant moment, Karen Melkonyan's goal assisted by Edgar Movsesyan, restored the two-goal advantage for Urartu, reaffirming their superiority. Despite their opponents having managed more corner opportunities, Urartu’s efficiency in front of goal proved decisive. The single yellow card for Urartu had minimal impact on the game's momentum, further illustrating their ability to balance aggression and control. The low number of bookings across both teams pointed to a match focused more on technical skills rather than physical confrontations.
