FURIA sweep Team oNe, move to "1-1" in Group D
A much needed victory despite having a stand-in.
A very important derby.
In a clash between two Brazilian squads, FURIA Esports and Team oNe eSports were going to figure out who is going to keep themselves in contention for a playoff spot at ESL Pro League Season 14 and who would start “0-2”.
Going to Mirage, Team oNe were once again looking to pick up a win, after narrowly missing one against Gambit Esports yesterday, but despite falling down “11-14”, FURIA did not budge. One round after another, they managed to reduce the deficit, tie the scoreline and take the map away in the regulation, “16-14”. Moving to Inferno, FURIA looked to close it out in a comeback fashion once again, but despite taking a “15-12” lead, they could not prevent the game going to the overtime. Wasting another match point was enough for the favourites, as FURIA Esports secured the game in the second overtime, “22-19” for a “2-0” victory.
Tomorrow FURIA Esports will look to keep their winning streak alive against Gambit Esports, while Team oNe eSports are going to open the day against Ninjas in Pyjamas.
