Serbia's Slobodan Janjic scored a penalty kick in the 17th minute, Mladen Kocic drove the ball into the net in the 21st and 31st minutes, Slobodan Rajcevic scored in the 27th and Marko Prsic in the 34th.

The scorer for Slovenia's only goal was Igor Osredkar in the third minute.

Serbia was the better rival in the match, played in front of 11,000 spectators, a record visit at the opening of a futsal tournament on the Old Continent, and is now only a step away from qualifying for the knockout stage.

Serbia will play the only remaining Group A team, Portugal, on Saturday, and Slovenia is facing them on Thursday.

A total of 12 nations qualified for the UEFA Futsal Euro 2016 final tournament, including defending champions Italy.

The opening ceremony, held just before the start of the match, included a dance spectacle.

Dejan Stankovic, Serbian football star and the tournament's promoter, kicked the tournament off by taking the first kick in the match.

The opening ceremony was attended by Football Association of Serbia (FSS) President Tomislav Karadzic, Vice-Presidents Savo Milosevic and Slavisa Kokeza, former FSS secretary general Zoran Lakovic and many others.
