But Tahir Taghizade insisted the exchange was good-natured and supporters were only stopped for a brief discussion with the police about their safety.Speaking to talkSPORT host Jim White on Wednesday morning, the ambassador explained: There are two versions of this video.There is an edited version when they approach them, and there is a full version where they approach them, chat with them for ten seconds and make a couple of calls on their radios and then let them go.It was quite amicable on both sides.

Is it an act of defiance?""It's ill-advised and a thumb in the nose of the environment."@JimWhite & @SJOpinion10 discuss some #Arsenal fans wearing Mkhitaryan shirts in Azerbaijan.What do you think? pic.twitter.com/Ueo1DIFsUt— talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) May 29, 2019But, in response to the suggestion some fans may deliberately wear the Armenian stars shirt to stir up trouble in Baku, Taghizade added: It is true there is still conflict [between Armenia and Azerbaijan].But whatever the reasons are, if the provocations are limited to wearing Mkhitaryan shirts, so be it.Hopefully this will be ok and so far it has been OK, unless it does not go any further.I do hope it will not go any further. I hope there will be no physical altercations between the two clubs and, from what I hear, the law enforcement will be doing their utmost to be as tactful and unimposing as possible.
