Larne opened their European campaign with a win as they edged past Tre Fiori 1-0 in the first leg of their Champions League first round qualifier at the San Marino Stadium.

Matty Lusty scored what proved to be the winner a minute before the break to give Gary Haveron's side a slender advantage in the tie.

The 22-year-old had a second goal after the break disallowed after a video assistant referee (VAR) review ruled there was a foul in the build-up.

The two sides will meet again at Inver Park for the second leg on Tuesday, 14 July.
