Henrikh Mkhitaryan is an Armenian professional footballer who represented the Armenia national football team as a midfielder from his debut in 2007 until his international retirement in 2022.[2] A ten-time Armenian Footballer of the Year,[3] Mkhitaryan scored 32 goals in 95 international appearances,[1] making him the country's all-time top scorer; he surpassed Artur Petrosyan's record of 11 goals on 15 October 2013 when he scored in a 2–2 World Cup qualifier draw with Italy.[4] He made his debut for Armenia in a 1–1 draw against Panama on 14 January 2007,[5] and scored his first international goal over two years later in his ninth appearance for his country against Estonia.[6]

On 29 May 2016, Mkhitaryan scored Armenia's first ever international hat-trick when he netted three times in a 7–1 friendly win over Guatemala in the United States.[7] Mkhitaryan also netted twice in a match (also known as a brace) on three occasions.[1] He scored the most times against Bosnia and Herzegovina and Guatemala, with three total goals against each side.[1]

Mkhitaryan scored 8 goals in FIFA World Cup qualifiers, 10 goals in UEFA European Championship qualifiers and 2 goals in the UEFA Nations League. The remainder of his goals, 12, came in friendlies.[1] Despite playing for Armenia for 15 years, Mkhitaryan never played in the FIFA World Cup or the UEFA European Championship.[2]
