Inter midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan got into a political scandal. The Armenian football player starred in the club television story, where the players talked about themselves. During the video, Mkhitaryan drew and showed the outline of a map of Armenia, which also depicted Nagorno-Karabakh as part of the Armenian state.

The Association of Football Federations of Azerbaijan intends to complain about Mkhitaryan to UEFA and the Italian Football Federation. Henry's actions also angered the Karabakh football club and Azerbaijani users on social networks.
