EUROPEAN MACCABI GAMES - OPEN FUTSAL FINAL
GB 4 AUSTRALIA 2

A teary-eyed Andy Landesberg could not contain his delight after GB overcame pre-competition favourites Australia to take gold in the Open Futsal competition.

GB had looked impressive in the group stages but they were forced to overturn a deficit after the impressive Dan Lipman was finally beaten in goal in the 11th minute. But they were only behind for a matter of seconds as a deflected strike from Charlie Kasler drew GB level.

The Aussies restored their advantage but the influential Kasler found the net again to make it 2-2.
