juanflatroo dominated 00 Nation on his opponent's home turf

Bad News Eagles best hometown heroes

TACO and coldzera's squad have met an unfortunate beginning in their run in Rio.

The first day's second game featuring a squad from the Americas has come to a close, with 00 Nation falling at the hands of Bad News Eagles in their opening match at the Riocentro Arena. 00 Nation now join fellow South American side 9z in the 0-1 pool.

The match took place on Vertigo, with the Kosovar squad starting on the CT-side. Bad News Eagles locked down the first pistol round, but 00 Nation immediately answered with a second-round force buy to tie things up. Despite the unfortunate turn of events, the Eagles rallied the next five rounds to extend their lead to a 6-1 scoreline. The Brazilians eventually snatched a round to break the streak, but Bad News Eagles quickly returned to their winning ways to finish the half with a dominant 12-3 scoreline.

The Eagles added insult to injury in the second half with a pistol-round victory, stamping out the hopes of 00 Nation and Brazilian fans alike. Unlike the first half, 00 Nation were unable to produce value from their force buy, allowing Bad News Eagles to secure their opening match with a resounding 16-3 scoreline.

00 Nation will need to compose themselves, as they are still set to play a 0-1 match later in the day. It will be imperative for the squad to patch the holes in their gameplay to avoid being put on the brink of elimination after the first day.
