The Faroe Islands started the brighter at the A. Le Coq Arena on Saturday, with Petur Knudsen giving the visitors a 24th minute lead in the 24th minute. However, Paide Linnameeskond's Robi Saarna provided the assist for Alex Matthias Tamke of Nõmme Kalju to bring the hosts level before the break.

Five minutes into the second half, veteran striker Henri Anier, who recently celebrated winning a league title in Hong Kong with his club side Lee Man, put Estonia 2-1 in front.

In the last ten minutes, Estonia extended their advantage through substitutes Edgar Tur (Levadia Tallinn) and Danil Kuraksi (Flora Tallinn)., who both netted their first goals for the national team.

"We felt the expectations, but I think those expectations gave us good energy. The fans were expecting a fresh start and we are really happy that we managed to win well with a decent performance. We have managed to do a lot in two days," head coach Jürgen Henn told ERR after the match.

Henn was confident that his game plan would work, even though it was the Faroe Islands who started the brighter. "Of course, it took us a while to get our real game going and this is just the first step," said Henn.

"Of course we have to be really happy that we scored four goals, which is never easy at international level. But this is only the first step and we still have to work on some of the details."
