MOUZ<\/a> came in as the clear favorites in their Global Esports Tour quarter-final bout against Falcons<\/a>, who played in Dubai with Christophe “\u2060SIXER\u2060”<\/span> Xia<\/a> as a stand-in, and didn\u2019t disappoint as they put on a decisive showing on both Nuke and Mirage to win 2-0.<\/p>\n This victory now puts MOUZ<\/a> in the GET semi-finals where they will face Movistar Riders<\/a> on Friday at 15:30<\/span> <\/i><\/span> in the last match before the single-elimination bracket reaches its culminating series, the grand final, on Saturday.<\/p>\n MOUZ are through to the next round of the bracket<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n The quarter-final series started on Nuke, Falcons<\/a>\u2019 pick, with MOUZ<\/a> taking a 2-0 lead after winning the pistol round. The Frenchmen then looked poised to charge through on the attack and make a dent in the half leaving things tied up after eight rounds, 4-4. But the Frenchmen deflated instead, getting just one more round in the half as Nicolas “\u2060Keoz\u2060”<\/span> Dgus<\/a> disappeared from the server without a frag until the second pistol round while Ali “\u2060hAdji\u2060”<\/span> Ha\u00efnouss<\/a> put in work to try and get his team back on track to no avail.<\/p>\n MOUZ<\/a> then won the second pistol round to run away on the scoreboard, 13-5, before Falcons<\/a> put together three successful defenses. It didn\u2019t last longer than that, however, as Christopher “\u2060dexter\u2060”<\/span> Nong<\/a> and his men struck back with three of their own to seal the deal 16-8 going into their own map pick.<\/p>\n On Mirage, MOUZ<\/a> immediately showed their teeth to take the series in two maps. David “\u2060frozen\u2060”<\/span> \u010cer\u0148ansk\u00fd<\/a> and company went up 5-0 on the attack before Falcons<\/a> could reply, keeping the Frenchmen honest throughout despite the CTs finally making the map competitive by bringing it to within one at the half.<\/p>\n SIXER<\/a>, the stand-in, then won a crucial 1vs1 in the second pistol round to bring things back to even, but MOUZ<\/a> hit right back in the forcebuy to regain the lead. A back-and-forth ensued, but didn\u2019t last, as it was MOUZ<\/a> who got in the driver\u2019s seat and cruised to victory before Falcons<\/a> could even hit double digits, 16-9, to lock in their place in the semis.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
