Junior after FPX victory: We messed up in some rounds but we got the win
The powerful AWPer reflects on the crucial win over FunPlus Phoenix at ESL Pro League.
The Brazilians from FURIA managed earlier this Friday to overpower FunPlus Phoenix at the important playoff match ESL Pro League Season 13. Despite being strong favourites, Andrei “arT” Piovezan and his soldiers couldn’t ease past FPX as the Europeans displayed a strong fight, especially on the first map on Nuke.

The sole American on FURIA Paytyn “Junior” Johnson took his time after the match to talk with the desk, where the promising AWPer explained that he was very optimistic for the win throughout the entire series, even though they struggled in some rounds.
The former Triumph player needed some counsel and advice from captain arT, when the desk asked Junior whether FURIA wanted to meet G2 or Liquid in the next round.
