The first meeting of the third day of group B started on the Inferno map, which became the choice of the Portuguese team. However, there was no intrigue on the server, as NiKo and the company very quickly took control of the game and completely controlled the opponent. As a result, G2 Esports played the warm-up half on defense, but still got a two-fold advantage — 10:5. After the side switch, FTW was not shown on the server at all. In turn, G2 Esports players quickly took six rounds and took the lead in the series — 16:5.

Next, the teams moved to the Ancient map, which turned out to be the choice of G2 Esports. And again, the Portuguese team did not show any struggle and desire, managing to take only five rounds for the strong side of the defense - 10:5. After the change of sides, the intrigue did not appear on the server. As a result, G2 Esports confidently took out the opponent and got the third victory in the championship — 16:6.

In the next round of the group stage, G2 Esports will play with FaZe Clan. In turn, the Portuguese from FTW will take on a serious opponent in the face of BIG.
