Nigerian defender Iboro Victory Sunday marked his professional debut in emphatic fashion, featuring in FCI Levadia Tallinn’s dominant 9-0 away win over Tallinna Kalev in the Estonian Meistriliiga.
The 20-year-old, a product of Beyond Limits Football Academy in Nigeria, was introduced at the start of the second half, replacing one of Levadia’s center-backs. Despite the pressure of a first appearance in European football, Iboro looked calm and confident, delivering a composed performance in defence and playing a key role in maintaining the team’s clean sheet.
Levadia had already established a commanding lead by halftime, but the goals kept coming in the second period as the team showed no signs of slowing down. Iboro slotted into the backline seamlessly, winning duels, positioning himself well, and distributing the ball with accuracy. His contributions helped sustain the team’s intensity and shut out any threat from the opposition.
The match served as a perfect platform for the young Nigerian to showcase his readiness for top-flight football. His debut comes just months after making the switch from Nigeria to Estonia—a move seen by many as a stepping stone to bigger European leagues.
Levadia’s 9-0 victory is one of the largest winning margins in the Meistriliiga this season and strengthens their position in the title race. For Iboro, it was a dream start and a moment that reflects the growing presence and impact of Nigerian talents in European football.
With more opportunities likely to come his way, the future looks bright for Iboro Victory Sunday. His professional debut is not only a personal milestone but a statement of intent as he begins his journey in European football
