Read moreKMF Leotar Trebinje are through to the main round of the UEFA Futsal Cup for the first time after holding off the bold challenge of SC Tornado Chisinau to win Group C with a 6-3 victory.Trailing the Bosnian preliminary round mini-tournament hosts on goal difference, Tornado needed a victory to top the section and looked in charge when they took a 3-1 lead through Yevgen Frolov.
Frolov, though, missed an 18th-minute penalty to increase the advantage and Leotar hit back, scoring three times in the last three minutes through two Milorad Cimirot goals either side of keeper Duan Berak's long-distance strike.
