mousesports to ESG final over Virtus.pro

The clash between MOUZ and Virtus.pro started with the European team taking the pistol round on the terrorist side, and followed it up with two anti-ecos. The Polish side fought back, winning three gun rounds in a row to tie it up, followed by MOUZ linking three rounds of their own before Filip "⁠NEO⁠" Kubski, with a triple, could break the streak.

Ultimately it was MOUZ that took the lead going into the half, 9-6, including a 1vs3 by Robin "⁠ropz⁠" Kool on the B site in the last round before switching sides. The Estonian’s squad then won the second pistol round, and got ahead by six rounds after the anti-ecos, 12-6. Virtus.pro didn’t throw the towel, though, and gave up only two rounds out of ten to bring it back to 14-14. In the end, the Poles were able to seal the deal and mount the comeback.

Overpass started with a 2-for-1 trade in favor of Virtus.pro, but a quick triple by Tomáš "⁠oskar⁠" Šťastný, who also picked up the last frag of the round to make it a quad, turned the round on its head and gave MOUZ the advantage out of the gate.

After the anti-ecos, which went the way of MOUZ, and the first gun rounds, Virtus.pro and the European team ended up at 5-5, with MOUZ going into the 11th round on an eco. Then, oskar got four kills, two with p250s and two with AKs, to keep his team ahead and put Virtus.pro in a bad economic situation, allowing the Martin "⁠STYKO⁠" Styk & co. to close the half ahead, 9-6.

Once again, MOUZ got to a flying start in the third map, winning the fifth pistol round in a row—this time on the CT side—, with doubles by oskar and Miikka "⁠suNny⁠" Kemppi. Virtus.pro won the third round, the first one they bought, and the following anti-eco, to bring it to 2-2. With 4-4 on the board, a lengthy technical pause ensued. When the match was restarted, it was Virtus.pro who got ahead and closed the first half, 9-6.
