It is appropriate to say that de_overpass is the map which favors both, Team Liquid and Team Solomid. However, the Danes made the North Americans look like complete amateurs. It was as simple as whatever the Liquid guys tried just didn't work out. Team SoloMid have won every single clutch and every single battle on the map. Even when it was looking like Liquid finally made it to a point where they were close to scoring a round, some insane play was shown time after time by TSM players and Liquid got shut down continuously.

The match started with a very chaotic pistol round where Liquid managed to come out with a one man advantage. However, Andreas "Xyp9x" Højsleth played a very nice fake, where he made Liquid players rotate over to the B bomb site, and during this rotation he caught one of them and managed to bring it back to a 1vs1. With only 10 seconds left on the clock he charged straight towards the other Liquid player and landed a headshot. From this moment on TSM were controling the match. Although Liquid had some very nice individual plays, such as deagle headshots, it still wasn't enough for them to shake Team SoloMid into dropping a round. Finally, the scoreline was 15-0 for Team SoloMid and the Danes just had to close it off after switching to the CT side. The second pistol round was simply an execution by the MVP of the match, Nicolai "device" Reedtz.
