Similar to yesterday's soccer derby, this match ended up quite close as well! KaaZ did the regular thing - winning two fast games in a row and then asking happily if he could go now. Somewhat reminded me of a little kid rushing off to watch television after doing his homework. His opponent was this time called DSky.Muhweli. The maps played were Lost Temple and Khoral of Ceres.
Kimthan did the same - except for the TV-rush - and beat DSky.nApoLeon in two fast TvZ games at Lost Temple.
The very controversial player TreK, who recently joined Team Sweden as a backup before the playoffs start, today faced arcneon(TE) who he beat two games to zero (2-0).
Thereafter the Finnish team turned the game a bit. JessE, who had won the first game versus ToT)Ovvi( (using very nice zergling and mutalisk counter attacks), now lost two in a row to the Finnish standin-team leader. This meant Sweden - Finland was 3-1 as Dealer reported a 0-2 loss versus DSky.Aqrash.
The 2on2s began without any bigger effort in chosing ally, and first out we had JessE and TreK versus ToT)ovvi( and DSky.Aqrash. The Finnish Flash Duo managed to beat the Swedish Vikings with 2-1.
Meanwhile, KaaZ and Dealer faced DSky.Muhweli and DSky.nApoLeon. In the first game, all players chose Zerg. The game was played on Lost Temple of course, and the Swedes took out Muhweli early, and then they also outplayed nApoLeon. The second game, which was to settle it all, Finland had to forfeit. nApoLeon's connection stopped working, and the victory was now in Sweden's custody.
