Yerevan late show in London
Sunday, 11 September 20
Tal Grig Yerevan needed a Emil Mesropyan goal three
seconds from time to keep them on track for
qualification from the four-team UEFA Futsal Cup
preliminary round mini-tournament.
Amazing finish
The Armenian champions' successful spot-kick ensured a
last-gasp 5-4 victory against Dinamo Tirana of Albania
in London today. Yerevan had led 2-1 at half-time
after two goals from Arman Sahakyan but Tirana staged
a determined second-half display. Ani Mullaj looked to
have earned them a draw with 39 seconds remaining
before that dramatic winner.
Second victory
It means Yerevan top the table with six points, having
already beaten Roubaix Futsal of France on the opening
day, and they will feel confident of taking one of the
two places on offer in the first qualifying round.
They now play mini-tournament hosts London White Bear
FC on Tuesday night, who will fancy their chances of
progress after a first-ever victory for an English
side in UEFA Futsal competition.
Bounced back
London had begun with a slender 2-1 defeat by Tirana
but bounced back today to see off Roubaix with a
convincing 6-0 victory, featuring three goals in each
half and two for Alexandr Topalo, to delight home fans
at the Crystal Palace national sports centre. The
heavy defeat ends Roubaix's realistic hopes of a
top-two finish but they will aim to finish on a high
when they take on Tirana in Tuesday's first game.
