Match

Every point is an argument now for Levadia

Position 8 and 22 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

Squad

Tempers go at Levadia

Liliu Sappinen was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Markus Pikk signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Markus Pikk commits to Levadia for another 3 years.

Match

Cup progress for Levadia

A 0‑0 win over Sillamae Kalev, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Match

Levadia are in real trouble now

Position 8, 21 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Market

Yasir Al-Sinan hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Levadia can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Flora come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Levadia did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad

Sergei Liivak is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Sergei Liivak: 1 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Match

The wait goes on for Levadia

4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Player ratings

Artur Zenjov runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match

Whatever happens, Levadia do not lose

7 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.
