On Oct. 3 the Ukrainian Futsal Extra‑Liga produced a season record 37 goals across the sixth round, mostly played in Kyiv. The day was highlighted by Fantom’s 6–5 win over Athletic, Alyans’ last‑second comeback at Uragan, goalkeeper goals, and sharp complaints about refereeing in HIT–Sokil. Most Extra‑Liga fixtures were held in Kyiv on Oct. 3, making the city the center of a rare, high‑scoring matchday and an on‑site focus for fans and club standings.

All sixth‑round matches of the Ukrainian Futsal Extra‑Liga took place on Saturday, Oct. 3, with the bulk staged in Kyiv. Teams combined for 37 goals — an Extra‑Liga single‑round record — averaging 7.4 goals per match. League leaders HIT remain on top with 14 points, while Fantom sit two points behind on 12 after their win.

Fantom’s 6–5 victory over Athletic produced 11 goals and was named the game of the round. Alyans completed the round’s most dramatic comeback at Uragan, scoring twice in the final minute and netting the winner two seconds before the final siren. SkyAp defeated Avalon while HIT beat Sokil 5–2; the latter match drew strong referee criticism and ended with the teams refusing to shake hands.

The weekend also featured notable moments: goalkeeper goals from Oleksandr Sirytsky and Ihor Baydak, a penalty converted early by Athletic’s André Luiz (his sixth of the season), six penalties taken this campaign with five scored, and a red card for Avalon’s Dmytro Suvorov. Two matches were paused by air‑raid alarms before play resumed.
