9z Sweep MongolZ Out of IEM Cologne

9z beat The MongolZ 2-0 on Sunday to book their place in the IEM Cologne playoffs. Inferno went 13-8, Overpass 13-8, and it was never close.

dgt was the standout with 44 kills and a 1.76 Rating across two maps. An ace on Overpass pushed 9z out to a 5-1 lead they never gave back, and on Inferno they won seven of nine T-side rounds to leave The MongolZ with no way in.

It caps a strong run for the South American side, who came through Stage 2 and knocked out Vitality to get here. For The MongolZ, it is a tough exit after arriving in Cologne as one of the more exciting teams in the field.
