Henrikh Mkhitaryan was on target as Armenia defeated Kazakhstan 2-0 in World Cup qualifying on Sunday.

The Manchester United star fired home with a stabbed left-footed effort in the 73rd minute in Yerevan to notch his 20th goal for in his 62nd outing for his country and fifth in his past five internationals.

Aras Özbiliz added a second on 75 minutes as Armenia struck a quick-fire double after Sergiy Mali was sent off for a second yellow card - a foul on Mkhitaryan.

Armenia now sit fifth on the Group E table with six points from five matches, seven behind leaders Poland and just one in arrears of second-placed Montenegro.
