The teams chose the Ancient map, where Natus Vincere started for the defense side and played the first half pretty well. Natus Vincere led to the change of sides with a score of 12:3, but then the Ukrainian team sank very much for the side of the attack and eventually lost with a score of 14:16.
Bad News EaglesAnd this team from Kosovo, which has already been sent home by many, made a very big sensation at the tournament in Brazil yesterday.

At the same time, on the Vertigo Bad News map, the Eagles took nine rounds in the first half of the map, but played hard for the defense side. And on the decisive map, the team from Kosovo showed character. After the first half of the card, the Bad News Eagles lost 4:11 for the attack side, however, the guys were able to win back for the defense side, and then take their toll in additional rounds.
ForecastIn this match, Natus Vincere is of course considered by the bookmakers to be the undisputed favorite.
At the same time, here the Ukrainian team, with a competent peak of cards and a proper attitude to the matter, should confidently outplay a much weaker opponent. We suggest that you bet less than 58.5 rounds on the total.
