'''Football Club Pyunik''' ({{langx|hy|Փյունիկ Ֆուտբոլային ակումբ}}), commonly known as '''Pyunik''' ({{lit|Phoenix}}), is an Armenian professional [[sports club]] based in the [[Kentron District|Kentron]] neighbourhood of [[Yerevan]]. Pyunik is mostly known for its professional [[association football|football]] team which, since its creation in [[1992 in Armenian football|1992]], [[List of unrelegated association football clubs|has always played]] in the [[Armenian Premier League]], becoming the most successful team of Armenia in number of official titles, with 34 won to date.<ref>{{cite web |title=Հայաստանի Առաջնության, Գավաթի և Սուպերգավաթի խաղարկությունները |url=http://freenet.am/~grighak/Football_files/Armenian%20Tournaments/CC.htm |website=freenet.am |access-date=29 April 2020 |archive-date=7 September 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140907083602/http://freenet.am/~grighak/Football_files/Armenian%20Tournaments/CC.htm |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Armenia - List of Cup Finals |url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/armecuphist.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070518190122/http://www.rsssf.com/tablesa/armecuphist.html|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=2007-05-18}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Club History|url=https://fcpyunik.am/en/history|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=19 April 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220419130814/https://fcpyunik.am/en/history|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Armenia - List of Champions|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/armechamp.html|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=1 September 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220901175644/https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/armechamp.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

Internationally, Pyunik has yet to win an international title, with the closest result being a bronze place finish in the [[2006 Commonwealth of Independent States Cup]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Commonwealth of Independent States Cup 2006|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/cis06.html|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=25 September 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220925235413/https://www.rsssf.org/tablesc/cis06.html|url-status=live}}</ref> Pyunik's domestic success usually qualifies the team for [[UEFA Champions League]] and [[UEFA Europa League]] qualifying rounds. Pyunik is also known to be one of the most popular football clubs in Armenia, along with [[FC Urartu|Urartu]], [[FC Shirak|Shirak]] and [[FC Ararat Yerevan|Ararat]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Armenia: Top Armenian Football Clubs|url=http://eurorivals.net/top-football-clubs/armenia|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=21 July 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200721122818/http://eurorivals.net/top-football-clubs/armenia|url-status=live}}</ref>

Pyunik has always had a fierce rivalry with [[FC Ararat Yerevan|Ararat]], as both clubs are considered to be the most successful clubs in [[Armenia]], the latter due to its [[Soviet]] accomplishments.<ref>{{cite web|title=Armenia always a football hotbed|url=https://www.uefa.com/nationalassociations/arm/|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=24 December 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191224123010/https://www.uefa.com/insideuefa/member-associations/association=arm/|url-status=live}}</ref> Both clubs are also the two most popular in the country and favorites within the [[Armenian Diaspora]]. Pyunik also shares a rivalry with [[FC Urartu|Urartu]] which began when Urartu relocated from [[Abovyan]] to [[Yerevan]] in 2001, and became the third largest team in the city. The Pyunik-[[FC Urartu|Urartu]] rivalry is seen as one of the biggest clashes in Armenian football.

Pyunik's home stadium is the [[Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium]], which is also home to the [[Armenia national football team]]. The youth academy has produced many Armenian internationals such as [[Henrikh Mkhitaryan]], [[Robert Arzumanyan]], [[Karlen Mkrtchyan]], [[Edgar Manucharyan]], [[Varazdat Haroyan]] and [[Gevorg Ghazaryan]], many who have played or are playing for top European clubs.

==History==
Pyunik was founded in 1992 by Armenian football legend [[Khoren Oganesian]] and originally named [[Homenetmen]] Yerevan.<ref name="EFH">(2005) Encyclopedia of Football Head. "George - Hirair LTD", page 63.</ref> The club won the first Armenian Premier League competition held in 1992 which it shared with [[FC Shirak|Shirak]] since both teams were tied on points. In 1995, Homenetmen Yerevan was renamed FC Pyunik (Armenian for "Phoenix"). Following the change of name, Pyunik went on to win the [[1995–96 Armenian Premier League]] and end the season with a 59-match unbeaten streak.<ref>{{cite web|title=Armenia 1995/96|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/arme96.html|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=15 August 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220815230356/https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/arme96.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

In 1996, Pyunik played its first international cup match, a [[UEFA Europa League]] qualifying match against Finnish club [[Helsingin Jalkapalloklubi|HJK Helsinki]] which Pyunik won 3–1.<ref>{{cite web|title=Pyunik FC » Record against HJK Helsinki|date=29 June 2015 |url=https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/pyunik-fc/hjk-helsinki/11/|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=24 December 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221224094024/https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/pyunik-fc/hjk-helsinki/11/|url-status=live}}</ref> Pyunik also won the [[1996-97 Armenian Premier League]] securing itself another chance at qualifying for an international cup playoffs the following year.<ref>[[1996–97 Armenian Premier League]]</ref>

In 1997, Pyunik played its first [[UEFA Champions League]] qualifying match against Hungarian side [[MTK Budapest FC]] yet failed to qualify for the playoffs following a 6–3 defeat on aggregate.<ref>{{cite web|title=Pyunik FC » Record against MTK Budapest|date=29 June 2015 |url=https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/pyunik-fc/mtk-budapest/11/|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=24 December 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221224094027/https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/pyunik-fc/mtk-budapest/11/|url-status=live}}</ref>

1998 proved to be a crucial year for the club following the loss of its main source of funding and the subsequent departure of its main players. Pyunik finished 6th that season and withdrew from football altogether.

Pyunik secured a comeback to professional football following its absorption of [[FC Armenicum]], a newly promoted team to the [[Armenian Premier League]]. The club's new management sought to bring more experience to the club and reinforced the squad with foreign players from [[Argentina]], [[Cameroon]], [[Mali]] and [[Romania]]. The reinforcements brought positive results and Pyunik went on to win the [[2001 Armenian Premier League]] and [[2002 Armenian Cup]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Armenia 2001 Premier League|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/arme01.html|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=1 September 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220901175802/https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/arme01.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Armenia 2002 Premier League|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/arme02.html|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=3 December 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221203225339/https://www.rsssf.org/tablesa/arme02.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

2002 saw Pyunik advance to the second round of the [[UEFA Champions League]] qualifying round after beating Finnish champions [[Tampere United]] 6–0 on aggregate.<ref>{{cite web|title=2002/03, First qualifying round, 2nd leg|url=https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/match/69685--pyunik-vs-tampere-united/|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=29 June 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220629172432/https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/match/69685--pyunik-vs-tampere-united/|url-status=live}}</ref> From 2002 forwards, Pyunik went on to win the [[Armenian Premier League]] a record of 10 times in a row, from 2001 to 2010.

On 8 January 2020, former [[Armenia national football team|Armenian]] international goalkeeper [[Roman Berezovsky]] was announced as the club's new manager.<ref name="Roman Berezovsky">{{cite web |title=Ռոման Բերեզովսկին՝ Փյունիկի գլխավոր մարզիչ |url=https://fcpyunik.am/hy/article/471 |website=fcpyunik.am/ |publisher=FC Pyunik |access-date=8 January 2020 |language=hy |date=8 January 2020 |archive-date=9 August 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200809115611/https://fcpyunik.am/hy/article/471 |url-status=live }}</ref> Just over 7-months later, 13 July 2020, Berezovsky left the club by mutual consent.<ref>{{cite web |title=Պաշտոնական հայտարարություն․ Ռոման Բերեզովսկի |url=https://fcpyunik.am/hy/article/623 |website=fcpyunik.am/ |publisher=FC Pyunik |access-date=15 July 2020 |language=hy |date=13 July 2020 |archive-date=15 July 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200715205938/https://fcpyunik.am/hy/article/623 |url-status=live }}</ref> On 20 July 2020, Artak Oseyan was announced as Pyunik's new manager,<ref name="Artak Oseyan">{{cite web |title=New appointment: Artak Oseyan |url=https://fcpyunik.am/en/article/624 |website=fcpyunik.am/ |publisher=FC Pyunik |access-date=20 July 2020 |date=20 July 2020 |archive-date=20 July 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200720110922/https://fcpyunik.am/en/article/624 |url-status=live }}</ref> but left his role as head coach on 13 December 2020.<ref>{{cite web |title=Artak Oseyan left Pyunik |url=https://fcpyunik.am/en/article/740 |website=fcpyunik.am/ |publisher=FC Pyunik |access-date=19 December 2020 |date=13 December 2020 |archive-date=10 January 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210110111850/https://fcpyunik.am/en/article/740 |url-status=live }}</ref> On 7 January 2021, [[Yegishe Melikyan]] was announced as Pyunik's new manager.<ref>{{cite web |title=Official statement: Eghishe Melikyan |url=https://fcpyunik.am/en/article/742 |website=fcpyunik.am/ |publisher=FC Pyunik |access-date=8 January 2021 |date=7 January 2021 |archive-date=7 January 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210107152711/https://fcpyunik.am/en/article/742 |url-status=live }}</ref>

In the 2022/23 season, after victories over [[CFR Cluj|Cluj]] and [[F91 Dudelange|Dudelange]], Pyunik became the first ever Armenian club to reach the third round of [[UEFA Champions League|Champions League]] qualifying, where they played against [[1991 European Cup Final|former European Champions]] [[Red Star Belgrade|Crvena Zvezda]], losing 7–0 on aggregate.

Subsequently, Pyunik dropped into the play-off round of the [[UEFA Europa League|Europa League]], where they played against the Moldovan side [[FC Sheriff Tiraspol|Sheriff Tiraspol]]. After two scoreless draws, Pyunik lost on penalties, thus dropping into the group stages of the Conference League, the first ever group stage appearance in a European competition for the club.

After a defeat away against [[FC Basel|Basel]] on the first matchday, Pyunik faced [[ŠK Slovan Bratislava|Slovan Bratislava]] in their first home match in Yerevan, which they won thanks to goals from [[Artak Dashyan]] and [[Yusuf Otubanjo]]. This result meant that they became the first ever Armenian team to win a game in UEFA group stage competitions.

===Badge===
The club has had five different designs for its badge during its history, with the first three designs being significantly different from each other. 
Following the club's reappearance in 2001, Pyunik introduced its iconic logo design which included a bold letter '''P''' placed on top of a football. The club kept this design for 13 years before introducing a double-headed golden phoenix crest in 2014. This change resulted unpopular among the fans and Pyunik introduced a new badge in 2019, this time returning to its original round shape with a predominantly blue logo and a red phoenix in the center.

Pyunik used several locations throughout its history. Between 1992 and 1998, Pyunik played at [[Hrazdan Stadium]], Armenia's largest stadium with a capacity for 54,208 spectators.<ref>{{cite web|title=Stadiums|url=http://www.ffa.am/en/Stadiums-1414068391|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=28 February 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200228085649/http://www.ffa.am/en/Stadiums-1414068391|url-status=live}}</ref>

In 2001, following the renovations works done at the [[Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium|Republican Stadium]] two years before, Pyunik relocated and played all its home matches there until 2013, with a brief interruption in 2008, when the club was forced to play at [[Pyunik Stadium]]; its training ground, due to renovation works at the [[Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium|Republican Stadium]].

Between 2013 and 2017, the [[Yerevan Football Academy]] served as a home venue for all domestic competitions, while still using the [[Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium|Republican Stadium]] for international fixtures. At the beginning of 2017–18 Armenian Premier League season, Pyunik used the [[Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium|Republican Stadium]] as a home venue during the first half of the season, and eventually returning to their own [[Pyunik Stadium]] during the second half.

The [[Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium|Republican Stadium]] is also the home of the [[Armenia national football team]], and is sometimes used by other [[Armenia]]n teams for their international cup fixtures.

The club is currently planning on building an all-seater 5,000 capacity stadium by 2022.<ref>{{cite web|title=Le propriétaire du club de football Pyunik envisage d'investir 15 millions de dollars dans la construction d'un stade et d'une base sportive pour son club|url=http://www.armenews.com/spip.php?page=article&id_article=5891|access-date=29 April 2020|archive-date=29 April 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200429163930/http://www.armenews.com/spip.php?page=article&id_article=5891|url-status=live}}</ref>

==Supporters==

Pyunik's supporter base is traditionally regarded as part of [[Yerevan]]'s higher class, in contrast with the supposedly more lower-class base of cross-town arch rival [[FC Urartu]]. Because of the club's history and recent success, the fanbase has grown not only in Yerevan, but in other provinces of [[Armenia]] and within the [[Armenian Diaspora]] as well.

Pyunik is considered to be one of the most popular clubs in [[Armenia]], and has one of the biggest [[Ultras]] fanbases in Armenia, called Sector 18, named after the sector they occupy at the [[Vazgen Sargsyan Republican Stadium]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Sector 18 Pyunik FC|website=[[Facebook]] |url=https://www.facebook.com/sector18pyunikfanclub/|access-date=29 April 2020}}</ref>

==Rivalries==
Pyunik's rivalry with [[FC Ararat Yerevan|Ararat]] originates with the creation of the club itself. Pyunik's founder [[Khoren Oganesian]], is considered an [[FC Ararat Yerevan|Ararat]] club idol, due to his achievements at the club during the Soviet period, winning the [[1975 Soviet Cup]]. Pyunik's success in recent history has led the club's image to surpass that of [[FC Ararat Yerevan|Ararat]], which has led to arguments over which club has had a bigger impact on [[Armenia]]n football.

The other rivalry, between Pyunik and [[FC Urartu|Urartu]] is also known as the clash of [[Yerevan]] neighborhoods, since Pyunik is located in the wealthier [[Kentron District|Kentron]] neighborhood, whereas [[FC Urartu|Urartu]] is located in the lower-class [[Malatia-Sebastia District|Malatia-Sebastia]] neighborhood. The rivalry between both teams originates from Urartu's relocation from [[Abovyan]] to [[Yerevan]] in 2001, competing with and eventually becoming one of the largest teams in the city. Both teams' youth academies also compete with each other as they are considered to be two of the best in the country.
