After the change of sides, there was not a single trace left of the Danes, as the FURIA players took out the opponent on the attack with two legs and took the lead in the series - 16:6.

Next, the teams moved to the Ancient map, which became the choice of FURIA. However, here the game began under the dictation of the Danish team, which had a good half in defense and got a two-fold advantage - 10:5. After switching sides, arT and the company still managed to catch up with the opponent and transfer the map to overtime. And yet here Heroic was unspeakably lucky, as a result of which the team equalized the score in the series — 19:17.

Everything was decided on the Nuke map, the first half of which actually ended with the defeat of the Brazilian team, who took only five rounds for defense - 10:5. Well, after the change of sides, Heroic did not allow the opponent to come up with anything, on the contrary, having played six confident rounds for the final victory - 16:5.
