Aurora continue to build momentum in Rotterdam. Prior to this match, they had already secured a strong win over FaZe, showing early signs of form in the group stage. This victory over FURIA confirms their status as one of the most dangerous teams in the bracket.<\/p>\n

FURIA, meanwhile, entered the match after a confident 2\u20130 win against TYLOO, but were unable to replicate that level against Aurora. The loss sends them to the lower bracket, where they will have to fight to stay in the tournament.<\/p>\n\n
