Tartu Welco and Levadia II met in the Esiliiga A on Thursday, 20 August, with the hosts taking a comfortable 4-2 victory. The result keeps Welco at the summit of the table with 54 points from 26 games, while Levadia II remain in sixth place on 37 points after 27 matches.
Welco struck first through K. Laasner in the twenty-eighth minute, and by then Levadia II had already shown they would not go away. U. Malki answered for the visitors in the thirty-fourth, and the game opened up. F. Rodionov restored Welco's lead just before half-time, the forty-fourth minute finding them ahead once more.
The second half brought more goals but not a clear pattern. A. Kompus pulled one back for Levadia II in the fifty-eighth, and then the game opened up again. A goal in the seventy-fourth minute put Welco back in control, though the scorer was not named. Levadia II refused to go away, finding a way through in the seventy-sixth to make it 4-2.
To be fair, the match told you little about control. Welco had already built enough of a cushion to weather the visitors' response. The final score reflects a game where the hosts held every card for long stretches, even if the second half suggested Levadia II could trouble them.
