Nestor Mytidis struck a clinical hat-trick as Cyprus came from behind to see off Andorra and boost their hopes of claiming a European Qualifiers Group B qualification spot.

Thanks to Israel's defeat in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Charalampos Christodoulou's men are now level with the third-placed side on nine points, though a shock looked on the cards when an own goal put them behind early on at the Estadi Nacional. 

However, Mytidis converted three chances with a minimum of fuss to leave Cyprus well in the mix for a qualifying berth with four games to go.

Mytides scored on 13th, 45th and 51th minute, while Andorra had scored first, at the 2nd minute with Dossa Junior's own goal. 

Junior missed a penalti at 50th minute. 

Cyprus: Giorgallides, Demetriou, Sielis, Junior, Antoniades, Nicolaou, Laban (76' Economides), Makrides (88' Kastanos), Efrem, Christophi (82' Alexandrou), Mytides.
