Two late goals saw CSKA Moscow beat Anorthosis Famagusta in Cyprus and qualify easily for the Europa League group stages.

The Cypriot side needed a minor miracle in the Antonis Papadopoulos Stadium to see-off a Russian outfit who were four goals to the good after the first leg.

Stiker Cafu forced CSKA keeper Igor Akinfeev into a save before Lucas Concistre replaced Ricardo Laborde in the host's midfield in the 19th minute.

Both sides then had chances before Cafu broke the deadlock with 14 minutes remaining.

But the Russian side were not to be denied and Seydou Doumbia scored on 85 minutes before Chile star Mark Gonzalez won the game with a minute to go as CSKA marched on to the next phase of the competition.
