Cup progress for Sillamae Kalev
A 5‑2 win over Tulevik, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Joonas Pikk breaks a bone — 31 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 31 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Marek Pikk scores twice — 9.27
Two goals and a mark of 9.27 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Both of them Rauno Marin's — 8.47
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.47, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Frank Klavan puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Sillamae Kalev, and it is not being withdrawn.

A debut Ken Baranov will not forget — 7.59
There is exactly one of these per career and it does not usually go like this. 0 on the scoresheet, 7.59 beside the name, and a crowd that had never seen him before chanting it by the end.

No sign of nerves from Mihkel Klavan at 21 — 7.94
The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Mihkel Klavan did not need any: 7.94, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Silver Ainsalu attracts admirers
The name of Silver Ainsalu has come up in conversations Sillamae Kalev were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Tempers go at Sillamae Kalev
Silver Ainsalu 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.
In brief
- Match Marek Pikk among the goals in a wild afternoon
- Squad Vido Marković falls out with a teammate over standards
- The terraces The crowd has taken to Mihkel Klavan
