It has been 9 months now since the first clash where Germany had to fight against
The Netherlands in the NationsCup IX Final for the gold medal.

The Germans won their map goldrush_te , which wasn't much of a big surprise for about 2100 ETTV Spectators.
With a one map advantage so far, Germany had the slight advantage to be named NationsCup IX Champions over the Netherlands but since it was now time to vote for the Dutch map supplydepot2 ( yes, even maps tend to change from time to time :) ).

The Germans secured the truck and the gold on supplydepot in a time of 8 minutes giving the Dutchies an ultimatum to prove their strong teamwork and aim.
And yes, with only 20 seconds left, they did very well and managed to get an equal score so far after the 2 chosen maps.

Since you and i both now that a game can't end as a draw after 2 maps, eliminations were in order and et_ice has been picked.
As et_ice is a fast map ( lotto maybe ? :p ) this game ended pretty quick because the Netherlands set an amazing time and the Germans just couldn't beat a time of 4 minutes.

Therefore the winner from last season's NationsCup IX was known, The Netherlands have beaten Germany with a 4:2 score.

But tonight ... the clash continues !


The Germans are more than eager to get even with The Dutchies and proceed to the NationsCup X SemiFinals.
With a somewhat different lineup then last season, the Germans will meet the Dutchies once again !

But we are forgetting the Dutchies in my opinion, they will once more try to stand their ground again and take another win vs The German Powerhouses.
The only difference tonight is, both teams aren't fighting for the Gold, they are fighting for a spot in the semi finals.

Let's have a look at the lineups from last season versus the lineups from THIS season:

Germany

riddla

butchji

As already mentioned, these lineups have changed and for tonight we have:

Netherlands

As with new lineups, i had to ask what both teams think of tonights game:

Last season Germany lost the final vs The Netherlands, what do you think of tonights match and how eager is Team Germany to win tonight ?

sNoOp : We won't repeat the mistakes we made last time and we will give our best for the match tonight so we can show everybody how strong the germans can be !

Last season it was a very close game versus Germany, the only difference now is, the lineups and the spot you are fighting for. Could you please announce the line up and tell me what you think of tonights match?

kris : Last season the motivation of team NL to really go for it was much higher, now we only prac 1 hour before an official. Aslo the lineups are different but i think we got good replacements for the ones we are missing now from last season. For tonight, we will either just loose or win by close, the lineup will be something like: kris perfo joop BuLL milk LiciD.

Good luck to both teams and show us what you got !
