1st Pandanet European National Team Championship: results of the 9th round

The last round of the first Pandanet Team Championship was played on Tuesday 17th May. It was crucial for Belgium to score at least one point against Croatia: if we had lost this one we would be dropped to league C for next year. But our players did quite well as we managed to draw. Please find the games on the website.

Croatia Belgium Score
Matej Zakanj (sylar) 4d Jan Ramon (janr) 4d 1-0
Slobodan Koncer (Baffo) 4d Nelis Vets (Nelis) 1d 1-0
Vedran Vasiljevic (Vaske) 2d Kwinten Missiaen (Kwik) 1d 0-1
Lovro Furjanic (Lovro) 2k Christopher Annachachibi (HisokaH) 1d 0-1

Many thanks to all players. I hope we can do it again next year. It wasn't easy but I'm really proud such a small country could stay in the B league.
