Salzburg struck three second-half goals to pick up their first three-point haul in Europa League Group F courtesy of a 3-0 win over Slovan Bratislava.

After the first hour had failed to produce a goal, Salzburg broke the deadlock through Leonardo before Eulogio Zarate and Dusan Svento added further strikes in the final 14 minutes to seal the home side's victory.

Salzburg are now level on three points with PSG, who lost at Athletic Bilbao, while Slovan are still looking for their first points after suffering a defeat at the hands of the Spanish side in their opening game.

It might have been a different story for the Slovakian side if Jiri Kladrubsky's fifth-minute strike had gone in instead of hitting the post, but that effort stayed out and Salzburg made the most of their let-off.

It took the home side until the 60th minute to get themselves in front, but in the end they ran out comfortable winners.

The opening goal arrived when Jakob Jantscher sent over a cross from the left and Brazilian Leonardo got on the end of it to send a header past Slovan goalkeeper Lukas Hroso.

Leonardo then turned provider to help Salzburg take a 2-0 lead 15 minutes later, his pass picking out Zarate whose right-footed shot from the edge of the box found the top-right corner of the net.

With Salzburg unbeaten in their last 11 home games in all competitions and having not conceded in their previous three European matches in front of their own fans, that second goal all but decided the match, although the hosts were not finished there.

Jantscher sent a shot wide of the post as Salzburg looked to increase their lead heading into the final 10 minutes before Ibrahim Sekagya fired over the bar as the Austrian side, who were beaten 3-1 at PSG in their opening match, continued to push forward.

The hosts did have one more goal to celebrate before the end with Svento netting four minutes into injury time after slotting in Georg Teigl's cross from the right.
