Armenian National squad captain and Manchester United midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan has spoken about his secret of success, as well as how he manages to overcome the difficult moments during the interview conducted by the FFA official site.

"The secret of my success is that I never stop working hard. Sometimes you face hard times during your football career but you must never give up. There are times when you have thoughts that tell you to stop, it is a natural human feeling, but it doesn't have to push you towards quitting. You have to find the strength to overcome the bad thoughts that occurs you."

With his goal against Denmark (0:4) Henrikh equalised and afterwards broke the best goalscoring record of Arthur Petrosyan who has been appointed the head coach of the Armenian National Team. Mkhitaryan is happy that he has managed to break the coach's record."

"As every player, I like scoring goals and I am very happy that I could break this record which actually used to belong to our National team’s new coach (laughing). It is not easy to score with the jersey of the National team because you always play against strong opponents, but I always do my best.

Arthur Petrosyan is one of the best players in Armenian national team history, if not the best. He always supported me. I am impressed of his way of working. He knows football very well, he has great knowledge. I think, we can have a success together. He can give something new to our team," Henrikh noted.

In response to the question how he feels when the world recognizes Armenia thanks to him, he has noted that he always does outmost so his country becomes known worldwide, so people become aware of Armenia's  geographical location and history.
