IEM Cologne 2021: the first round of the lower Play-In bracket is behind

Add as a Preferred Source

The first round of the lower bracket at IEM Cologne 2021 has come to an end. 4 teams said goodbye to the chance to get to the group stage.

Bad News Bears were the first to pack their bags. The American lost without a chance to the French from LDLC.

MIBR followed home. The Brazilians failed to resist the Renegades and were eliminated 2-0 from the championship.

Then ViCi said goodbye to Cologne, losing to Evil Geniuses with a score of 0-2. The Chinese five showed a fight, but that was not enough.

The last of the top four to lose were Team One. The Brazilians failed to beat Sprout and left the championship after losing with a score of 1-2.

IEM Cologne 2021 does not end there, on the contrary - everything is just beginning. Ahead of us are the matches for reaching the group stage, but this is not recommended.
