FC Pyunik and Dinamo Minsk will continue their contest in the first qualifying round of the 2024-25 Champions League with a decisive second leg at Republican Stadium.
In Hungary, Pyunik struggled with only six shots on goal and minimal possession, relying heavily on counterattacks. They earned just one corner and remarkably weren't caught offside once in the entire match, highlighting their lack of attacking prowess.
Nevertheless, the result extended Pyunik's unbeaten streak to 10 matches but marked their first failure to score since a 1-0 loss in the domestic cup to Ararat-Armenia in April.
At home, Pyunik have been solid defensively, conceding only once in their last 15 games, winning 10 and drawing four.
Dinamo Minsk, on the other hand, face a daunting task after the stalemate in the first leg. They must find a way past Pyunik's resilient defense, which has not conceded a goal in over 400 minutes of play.
Despite firing 15 shots in the first leg, Dinamo Minsk managed just five on target, none of which seriously threatened Henri Avagyan in Pyunik's goal.
The draw ended Dinamo Minsk's seven-game winning streak but maintained their unbeaten run of 11 matches, with their last away defeat dating back to early May.
