ImageSK have just qualified themselves for the finals of the DreamHack Summer 2009 event after beating the French Millenium, this being the second win over them in this tournament.



SK Gaming and Millenium both started off in Group A where they faced each other on de_nuke. Millenium proving to be a little tougher than expected for SK, the Swedes were eager to not let them get too close in the semi finals.

However, Millenium was hanging on strongly in the semi-finals. After a good Terrorist side for SK, on de_inferno with a first half score of 11-4, Millenium was able to pull it together. Second half proved to be a little tougher with SK competing against a determined opponent. However, having picked up enough rounds on first half, SK managed to pick up the few remaning rounds and end the first map 16-12 in favor of the Swedes.

The second map, de_nuke, was also the map that SK played against Millenium in the groupstages. This time it was a different story. SK took full control of the map winning Terrorist side 13-2 and ending the second half on the third round in style with a knife kill, and thus, advancing to the Finals.

Who SK will be facing in the finals will depend on the Lemondogs versus Evil Geniuses semi-final game which is due to start at 19:00 CET.
