Lftp operation

dear all,

I need to get files from ftp when only files consist of words 'EUROPE'
ftp sources in folder
Code:
/ftp1/ftp2/ftp3/201409

files inside
Code:
/ftp1/ftp2/ftp3/201409

is as below

Code:
201409_EUROPE_citizen.txt
201409_EUROPE_natality.txt
201409_EUROPE_occupancy.txt
201409_ASIA_citizen.txt
201409_ASIA_natality.txt
201409_ASIA_occupancy.txt

To get the files when files consist of string 'EUROPE' , I did this get_ftp.sh

Code:
#!/bin/sh
cd /dir1/subdir1/log1/log2
PERIOD=`date +%Y%m`

lftp -u user,password -e "cd ftp1; cd ftp2; cd ftp3; cd $PERIOD; mget $PERIOD_EUROPE* ; bye" 1x.2x.2xx.1xx

But when I run get_ftp.sh, all files inside
Code:
/ftp1/ftp2/ftp3/201409

is transferred include files consist of string 'ASIA'

I only need rhe files with "EUROPE" only
