Although the Greens created several good chances, they were unable to find the back of the net. Kuressaare used their opportunity efficiently and went into halftime with a narrow advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second half, however, Levadia showed their character. Sustained pressure paid off when Tambedou equalised after an assist from Skvortsov, giving the team new momentum. The decisive moment came when Ainsalu scored a beautiful free kick to make it 2\u20131.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Levadia had a few more chances towards the end, but Kuressaare found no way back, and the final whistle confirmed an important victory. The three away points mean Levadia remain firmly at the top of the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Levadia extended their unbeaten run to ten matches and remain the only team in the league yet to suffer a defeat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch the match highlights <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RLd4Dgynpj0\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Post-match comments by captain&nbsp;Rasmus Peetson:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cVery important three points. And very hard-earned!\u201d Peetson summed up the match. \u201cWe were a bit sluggish in the first half; in the second half we needed more aggression and determination on the ball, and a bit more quality. The pitch is the same for both teams. It\u2019s a bit spring-like, but we have to adapt. We train on a similar surface, so we have to cope,\u201d he said, avoiding excuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the next round, the Greens face a new challenge as we play our first home match of the year on natural grass at&nbsp;A. Le Coq Arena. The opponent will be&nbsp;Harju JK Laagri, a strong side that has challenged everyone this season. The match kicks off next Saturday at 14:30. Come support the team at A. Le Coq Arena!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo: Anna Andreas<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FCI Levadia&nbsp;earned a valuable away win yesterday, defeating&nbsp;FC Kuressaare&nbsp;2\u20131 in the 10th round of the&nbsp;Premium liiga.
