"Every team that builds that momentum and manages to use it — that's really good for confidence and everything," he told HLTV after the match. "So there’s this feeling of frustration, right? That helplessness of not being able to help or do more.
"We knew we had a chance to win the next tournaments we attended, based on how we had been performing. Now we have to look ahead and realize that we have a new opportunity here.
We got off on the right foot, which is important, so we'll try to build on that." arT, welcome back. A 2-0 victory in your return to competition, with two very hard-fought maps.
I wasn't that on point, my aim is still a bit shaky, it's been a long time without playing CS, I couldn't play almost at all. But we managed, tactically and collectively, to play well.
The guys also won some important rounds there, individually, which really helped us. But it's good to start off on the right foot, it's always important. This is your return to the team after missing EPL due to health problems.
I read that you followed the team's practices a bit during your absence.
