A long recovery is now behind him \u2013 Gero is back on the pitch!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Nigerian striker Ahmad Gero, who joined Levadia in 2024, got injured during the 8th round match of last season&#8217;s Premium Liiga. He had only appeared in eight matches for Levadia before the injury brought his season to an unexpected end. Despite the short period, he managed to score twice \u2013 once against FC Kuressaare and once against N\u00f5mme Kalju FC. Altogether, he collected 241 minutes on the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the new season underway, the Nigerian striker is back in action! In the very first match of the year, the Supercup Final, Gero found the net again. Alongside his playing minutes, he scored an important goal, giving Levadia a 2:0 lead towards the end of the first half!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He scored his second goal of the season already in the following match, in the Tipner Cup quarterfinal against FC Zapoos \u2013 Gero opened the scoring in the 9th minute for both Levadia and the match overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Levadia\u2019s latest match took place in Tartu, on the artificial pitch at Sepa Football Centre \u2013 the very same field where Gero had suffered his injury in 2024. The match against Tartu JK Tammeka was tight, and just before the final minutes, the scoreboard showed a 2:2 draw. In the 88th minute, Gero took matters into his own hands and scored an extremely important 3:2 winning goal, helping his team secure three valuable points on the road!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Ahmad Gero:<\/em><\/strong> <em>&#8220;What are you fighting for at the end of the day? What do you overcome for yourself every day?<br>How do you manage to always see the positive side, even when it\u2019s dark? I know it, and I\u2019ve known it over these past days, weeks, and months. All for today! I can\u2019t even tell you how much I missed this feeling. I missed stepping out onto the pitch\u2014especially at home\u2014helping my teammates, and celebrating with our fans afterwards! After nine months, I can finally do what I love above all else again. It\u2019s been a long road, but every single day of hard work has been worth it!<br>Thank you to my family, friends, teammates, and staff for standing by me through this time. And thank you to God for giving me faith and strength. It wasn\u2019t always easy, but You brought me here today \u2013 back on the pitch, back on the ball!<br>And now it\u2019s time for the real thing!&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are extremely happy to see Gero back on the field! We wish him the best of luck and lots of success going forward!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Photo: FCI Levadia<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last spring, on April 28, when FCI Levadia traveled to face Tartu JK Tammeka, Gero suffered an injury.
