KerchNET and mousesports agreed to play their match in the European Championship group stage for Extreme Masters IV in Dubai – KerchNET managed a win against the Germans, with two times 16-14.

The match was originally staged to be played online, but as both teams were in Dubai this week, they had the opportunity to play it here. Playing it in Dubai was something the Ukrainians favored, as they stated the internet is not the best in Ukraine.

The Germans lost three matches in the group stage in Global Challenge Dubai and the community put a question mark to the team being able to perform well again. KerchNET on the other hand had a lot to win. Getting the opportunity to play mousesports on LAN, was clearly something they had been waiting for.

First map dust2 saw mousesports defending the bomb spots solid, taking seven rounds as CT. The Germans normally play a very well executed T side, but KerchNET clearly found out how to put a stop to it, as they went to take eight CT rounds, which granted them the victory in a very clutch match, winning 16-14.

Second map nuke was the same story. Clutch play all the way to the finish line. Starting CT once again, mousesports could note a 9-6 halftime score, before KerchNET got to defend. The match once more went to go down the wire, seeing mousesports winning many clutch rounds. KerchNET did however take the last and most important round, as they nailed a 16-14 result on nuke aswell, taking home a 2-0 score in Dubai.
