The seventh draw was brought down to a duel between s1mple and 
frozen, and our player took the win! However, then NAVI was forced to give up the round in return, which led to problems with the economy.
In the twelfth draw Natus Vincere had a great opportunity to reduce the difference in the score, but the guys could not cope with the opponent's eco. The end of the first half was held better by the mouz and they won it with the score 10 : 5.
In the second pistol round and eco round, the European five turned out to be stronger. In the next two buy rounds, our team performed better than forced the enemy to make one eco.
It seemed that the key episode of the first map happened in the twenty-second round when mousesports took the eco. Fortunately, such a development did not break the spirit of our guys! In the twenty-fourth round, terrorists planted a bomb, remained in the situation 3 vs 2, but still failed to deal with the players of the defense. As a result, mousesports got five match points and executed the second of one — 16 : 11.
