Road to the Final — Impeccable Form and Team Synergy

On July 12, TNL played two matches in the playoff stage. First, the Ukrainians defeated the Bulgaria team with a 2:0 score, and then secured a victory over Denmark — again 2:0. The team operated cohesively and confidently: map control, precise shooting, and clear communication were the defining factors.

Final Match and Opponent

The final of the European Esports Championship 2025 kicks off today, July 13, at 21:45 CEST. TNL's opponent will be decided in the match between Lithuania and Germany — this semifinal will take place a bit earlier.

TNL's CEO, Mikhail “Kane” Blagin noted that reaching the final is a natural step towards the team's goal:

WE ARE IN THE FINAL! Just as it should be. The Ukrainian team is confidently moving forward — the guys did what they were supposed to do. But regardless of the result — there is already immense pride for each one of them. They are representing our country with honor. Future world-class stars. Although, to be honest — they are already shining.

The words of the team leader reflect the overall mood within the group — respect for the opponent, confidence in their abilities, and a desire to win.

The EEC final is not just a chance for a title but also proof of the systematic progress of Ukrainian esports. TNL's confident performance shows that the youth are ready to take responsibility and achieve results. The match for gold will be the culmination of the tournament journey and a potential starting point for new heights.
