Quarter Finals: Nations Cup #6 powered by Tt eSPORTS: Denmark vs France

It’s Quarter Final time, the business end of the competition and for both Denmark and France, both will be harbouring title ambitions but only one will reach the last 4 and play England. Join CeeJaey, Jon and Danish substitute turned caster, Beater are here on the mics to bring home a keenly contest matchup live on BlackOut TV tonight at 21:15 CEST.

Denmark last made it to the Semi-Finals in 2012 and lost out to England, and most of their squad that day feature tonight, looking to relinquish the painful memory of 4 years ago. France meanwhile are the holders, but feature a completely new team to the one that won the gold in 2014.

The history in TF2 for these two nations is great, but how have they compared so far this tournament? Strangely the best way might be to measure their performances against Iceland – France‘s only map loss this tournament was a 4-2 loss to Iceland in the groups, where they needed to win a close tiebreaker to determine their first seed. Denmark meanwhile strolled the group stages, winning every map 5-0 and overpowered Iceland in the last 16, taking two maps 4-1 and 2-0 to set up this meeting.

Ultimately it is sure to be a closely contested game, based on performances against other opponents Denmark might have a slight edge but it’s so close it doesn’t matter for the game itself.
