Crucial Clashes in Group A!

In the EuroCup, things are heating up as the kick-off of the penultimate matches of group A draws near. Current leaders of the group, TLR and Cortana, will look at tonight's match-ups with hopes of extending their leads and thus securing spots in the play-offs. Meanwhile, the outlooks for kojak and OVERLOAd, following their recent defeats, are arguably more gloomy as both teams technically face do-or-die situations.


Having lost to Cortana only the day before yesterday, the Dutchmen of OVERLOAd now find themselves in a tight spot as they go up against their Benelux rivals of TLR in a match that they must win in order to keep alive any hopes of making it to the play-offs. Currently being plagued by major line-up difficulties, the all-Dutch side is caught between a rock and a hard place going into this match.


Although kojak has suffered defeat just as OVERLOAd has, the team should be able to breath somewhat more easily than the Dutchmen, seeing as it is taking on a comparatively more equal opponent in the shape of Cortana. Undoubtedly, both of these sides will fight tooth and claw in order to seize victory in this match-up as they are practically fighting on equal terms, both bereft of any safety nets. Although Cortana may technically be able to afford losing the match-up, the team would find itself very hard pressed going into its next match against TLR, should it do so. Similarly, kojak must win this match in order to keep alive any hopes of making it to the play-offs.
