Armenia v Wales: Euro 2024 qualifying – live
Some trouble before the match: 32 Wales fans have been arrested in Yerevan. A Football Association of Wales statement read: “The FAW are aware of the situation regarding our fans in Yerevan and we are in regular discussions with the travelling police and FSA [Football Supporters’ Association] Cymru. FSA Cymru are the fan embassy who have contact with the local authorities as well as South Wales police, who are here to liaise with local law enforcement. The British Foreign and Commonwealth Office are also involved.”
FSA Cymru posted on social media before the game: “Lots of tickets touts in streets leading to stadium … be wary of them … the police have stated they no fans will be allowed in wrong ends of stadium.”
FSA Cymru also alleged that a female Wales fan was asked for “sexual favours” instead of paying for a taxi on Thursday: “A serious incident took place … when a Welsh fan was in the back of a taxi … the driver pulled into a quiet place and joined her in the back asking for sexual favours as payment. She is OK and got out unscathed, but is obviously distressed and must have felt very vulnerable.”
Around 1,200 Wales fans have made the 2,300-mile journey to Armenia.
