Astralis defeats MOUZ in the group stage of ESL Pro League Season 16

The first match of the second round of group C started on the map Inferno, which turned out to be the choice of MOUZ. At the same time, the teams showed an equal start in the first half, albeit with a slight advantage in favor of Astralis — 9:6. However, the most interesting thing happened after the change of sides, because the "mice" quickly lost the thread of the game and could not do anything with the opponent's lightning attack. In turn, the Danish team managed to go all the way without significant mistakes, thanks to which they took the lead in the series — 16:7.

Next, the teams moved to the Nuke map, which became the choice of Astralis. However, now the first half was under the control of the MOUZ players, who had made an enviable advantage and were preparing to play the desider — 11:4. Nevertheless, after the side switch, the "mouse" disappeared from the server, while the Danish team quickly equalized and began to dictate their terms. As a result, Astralis put the squeeze on the opponent, thus obtaining the first victory in the championship — 16:14.

In the next round of the group stage, the Danish team will play with HEET, while MOUZ will have to be tested against ENCE.
