MYM show iron will in victory

Pride, experience, skill, competitiveness and ambition, the clash between MYM and Iron Will announced itself to be a nut cracker, even before it began.

On dust2 the situation changed completely, as the two teams headed into a very equilibrated clash. MYM gathered the first few rounds as Counter-Terrorists, yet once the match was at 5-1 to their advantage things levelled up, only for the half-time score to see Iron Will in the lead, with 8-7.

Dmitry "hooch" Bogdanov and his colleagues then lead the game up until 7-4, when the two sides just started going head to head into overtime.
