Speedlink defense on
Burgundy. The first five points were all about the German team and would be a though burden the Dutch team would carry the entire match. They managed to get a
10-5 score in the first half, but they needed to step up their game for the second half.
Speedlink and
H2k were sharing the room but all you could hear was Speedlink’s winning shouts and you wouldn’t say
H2k were playing in their own country.
Speedlink knew exactly what to do and how to play. When defending they would show themselves only when necessary and the sniper was doing a great job killing and reducing H2k players. For some times
H2k coordinated attacks gave results and the score difference became not so obvious but in the end was just not enough against the German team. Their clutch play and coordination were just too much to handle for the Dutch side.
