The coach of Ukrainian club Monte Sergey "LMBT" Bezhanov spoke in a post-match interview about the result of the match against Rooster in the middle set of Group B at EPL S18. The Aussie underdogs were able to win the first map and create problems on the remaining maps.

Bezhanov admitted that his charges underestimated their opponent, thinking that the match would be an easy ride.

We just went into the game with the wrong mentality. We made a mistake because we approached the match as if we had already won, but obviously winning has to be earned.
I told the guys one simple thing: "We've been playing CS:GO for 10 years, everybody knows how to play CS, anybody can shoot in the head. If these guys [Rooster] are here, then they deserve it." That's basically what you fixed by the second and third map. That's what we should have done.
