Huge upset: Movistar Riders ready for IEM Cologne!
The Spaniards took down Team Vitality to secure the spot in the group stage.
After their surprising win at ESL Challenger Valencia last week, Movistar Riders has continued their impressive run by qualifying for the main event at IEM Cologne.
Against Team Vitality it was an excellent CT side on Vertigo that gave the Spaniards the momentum needed. A 16-13 win was followed up on Overpass with a 16-4 win after another stellar CT side.
On the other side of the server, it was not a pretty sight seeing most of the Vitality roster playing way below their normal standards.
The French/Danish roster will get another chance tomorrow when they go up against Sprout, while Movistar Riders can enjoy a day off before the group stage at IEM Cologne begins on Thursday.
