The second quarter-final of the tournament started on the map Ascent, which turned out to be the choice of the European team. But if the first half ended with a minimal advantage of the DRX representatives, then after the change of sides, FunPlus Phoenix managed to slightly improve their position and switch the game to overtime. And yet here the South Korean team turned out to be stronger, thanks to which they took the lead in the series — 19:17.
