YEREVAN, JUNE 13, ARMENPRESS: English Daily Mail newspaper reverberated
to the victory of Armenian national football team towards Denmark and
reaction of Kim Kardasian. Newspaper writes: "Inspired by celebrity
fan Kim Kardashian and her 17.9 million Twitter followers, Armenia
equalled the biggest win in their history as they beat Denmark 4-0
in Copenhagen.
No doubt spurred on by Kardashian's 'Let's go Armenia!!!' tweet,
the Armenians managed even more goals than Kardashian managed
exclamation marks.
The Danes were 1-0 down inside 30 seconds and had enough trouble
keeping up with their opponents; little did they know that they must
now contend with keeping up with the Kardashians.
Only 14,784 turned up in Copenhagen to watch Denmark's World
Cup-qualifying humiliation but, thanks to Kardashian's tweet, a further
17,883,120 people were glued to the events in the Danish capital.
The American socialite, TV celebrity and pregnant mother to Kanye
West's child achieved fame through the highly successful reality TV
show, Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
West and Kardashian's combined wealth is reported to be in excess of
£51 million.
By contrast, Henrik Mkhitaryan, scorer of Armenia's record-equaling
fourth goal, cost Shakhtar Donetsk just £4 million.
Armenia's population may be five-and-a-half times smaller than
Kardashian's twitter following but that hasn't stopped them putting
a big dent in Denmark's hopes of qualifying for Brazil 2014.
While Kardashian was rejoicing in Armenia's success, Denmark coach
Morten Olsen called the loss 'the worst night of my footballing life'.
The Danes now sit in fifth place in Group B, with Italy top of the
table, ahead of only last-placed Malta with four matches remaining.
Conversely, Armenia's win keeps alive their slim chances of reaching
a first World Cup in their 21-year history.
Kardashian's Armenian heritage can be traced through her father's
side. Robert Kardashian, who achieved fame as O. J. Simpson's defense
attorney, was a third-generation Armenian American.
His great-grandparents, Sam and Harom Kardaschoff, were ethnic Armenian
Molokan Jumpers from Kars in what is now Turkey), who emigrated to
the United States in 1913".
