Schalke 04 Esports beat Eintracht Spandau 3-2 in a five-game thriller and still has a chance to win the title in the League of Legends Premier League. Despite reaching the final in the last split, Eintracht will not be represented in the next European Masters.

"It felt very competitive today," Schalke coach Christos "Lion" Tsiamis said in an interview after the game "Eintracht was well prepared, made good adaptations. It was just one-day form for both teams.»

Eintracht Spandau does not reward itself for leadership

At the beginning, things went well for Eintracht, who confidently secured the first match. But S04 played better after that, won the next two games and was also ahead in the fourth game. The Eintracht managed a strong comeback, which should still not help, because Schalke closed the bag in game five.

With the departure of the team of youtuber Max "HandOfBlood" Knabe, there will be no derby in the next round, although the rival BIG had previously prevailed similarly narrowly against Mouz.

Also Rekkles with KCorp remains untitled

A team supported by streamers also flew in the French LFL. After the last three EU Masters titles in a row, KCorp only managed to finish in fifth place in the playoffs. As with G2 last year, star Botlaner Martin "Rekkles" Larsson will miss another international tournament this season.
