Skully — They have fought for pride in Football, Hockey, Cycling, Table Tennis, Badminton and….Showjumping?! Tonight VanillaTV picks up one of the greatest European sporting rivalries and places that big fish into a little pool we call TF2. Tonight, its England taking on Germany
Tonight, while every other country gets their “sweet 16″ round of playoff games played, the only quarter final game ready decides not to wait and get the grudge match over with. These two teams know each other all too well. In the last nations cup (hosted by ESL), it was the Germans on the receiving end of losing, however it was against team UK, which was in a nutshell the English in disguise
The Germans will be looking to avenge defeat, even the non-English will experience defeat
The question will be who will come out on top? Both teams are stacked with experience and skill. Can the experience of TF2 veteran Byte shout and call his team to victory? Will Numlocked prove once again why he is one of the best demomen in Europe? Or will the Germans strength of Stefan and Thy be enough to get the monkey off their backs and move onto the semi-finals of the nations cup? With Badlands and Gullywash being the two maps (with Granary as a decider), we can expect some classic action from two of the “big 4″ of the nations cup. Tune in tonight on VanillaTV at 21:15 CEST to hear Admirable and DJC call this classic encounter in their own classic style, with CUBE holding the camera for them. Also, n2oTV will also be providing a German language alternative.
