On June 3, Bratislava's "Slovan" played a friendly match against "Petržalka" and won 1-0. In this game, Tigran Barseghyan played from the start but was forced to leave the field prematurely in the 40th minute.
According to preliminary data, the Armenian footballer suffered a knee injury.
"The negative moment was Tigran Barseghyan's forced substitution, we hope that it's nothing serious. From what we saw, Tigran went for a slide and got injured. It seemed that the knee got stuck and he caught on the grass. On Thursday he will undergo examinations, we all keep our fingers crossed that it's nothing serious and won't sideline him for a long time. This would be a complication for us as we don't have many players, but we don't want to get ahead of ourselves and hope that the diagnosis will be positive," said assistant head coach Boris Kitka after the match.
On July 10, "Slovan" played the first round of the Champions League qualification match against the North Macedonian club "Struga."
