The Esiliiga clash between JK Tallinna Kalev U21 and Tartu JK Welco Elekter ended with a 1-2 victory for the visitors, marking a crucial result influenced by efficient finishing and disciplined defensive performance. Despite a promising start for Kalev U21, who took an early lead at 25 minutes into the match, they struggled to maintain their momentum. Their ability to exploit corners was limited, with only three opportunities compared to Welco's eight, showing a lack of sustained pressure in attacking positions.

The game was evenly matched in terms of offsides, with both teams recording three instances each, indicating closely contested defensive lines. However, where Kalev U21 struggled with finishing after their initial lead, Tartu JK Welco demonstrated clinical efficiency, equalizing just a minute after falling behind and securing the decisive goal shortly after the second-half restart. This swift response and second-half goal underlined their ability to capitalize on transition phases more effectively.

Discipline played a significant role; with four yellow cards, Tartu JK Welco had to manage their aggression carefully to avoid infractions, yet they managed to control the match without any players being sent off. In contrast, Kalev U21, despite receiving fewer yellow cards, could not leverage this disciplinary advantage. The greater number of fouls committed by Welco suggested an aggressive, physical approach, but it was their superior usage of opportunities, particularly corners and counter-attacks, that ultimately secured them the win.
