Team Vitality took 9th-12th place at IEM Cologne 2021
Ihor MatusThe performances of two more groups have come to an end. Following the results of the matches of the lower bracket, such teams as FURIA Esports and Team Vitality were eliminated from the tournament.
The Danes, against whom the Brazilians from FURIA played, had a very difficult time. Heroic came very close to being defeated at Ancient. To determine the winner there, the teams resorted to using additional rounds. As a result, Ancient ended with a score of 19-17. On Nuke, things went much faster and the teams finished the battle in 26 rounds. Heroic beat FURIA with a score of 16-10 and sent them home to pack their bags.
Team Vitality in the fight against FaZe Clan also did their best to achieve the result, but the applied forces were not enough - FaZe turned out to be stronger anyway. On Mirage, the French lost 11-16, and on Dust 2 they managed to take 14 rounds.
In the next matches of today's game day, we will be able to see who from Group A and B will leave the competition, who will reach the playoffs, and who will be honored to skip the quarterfinals and go straight to the semifinals of the final stage.
