Biete - Kristall » Adrien Hunou netted the winner

CIS Albus Nox Luna electrified fans on Thursday night with a historic second round-robin performance that advanced it as the first Wild Card region team to ever make it to the World Championship bracket stage.On Friday, however, Brazils INTZ couldnt make it two-for-two for the underdogs, falling in three straight games to end its tournament at a record of 1-5.ESPN was able to catch up with INTZs Luan Jockster Cardoso for his final interview of the tournament.I think the biggest thing we learned from the tournament is that each region not only just has its own different play style, but how they think [and execute] to play optimal, he said. They do it really, really well, and I think thats something we didnt realize and didnt do, because in Brazil we just try to see the meta and think of whats best. But we dont try to optimize it. We also try to be flexible so we counter our [opponents] strategies, but I dont think it works in an international competition. Its basically who can execute their [personal] strategy better.H2K surprised me the most, he went on. They had a boot camp in South Korea, and I thought they would come in really strong, but they showed that they learned a lot [in South Korea]. In my opinion, they are the best European team here. Their macro [especially surprised me] because they were so crisp. They dont get picked off and are always there to [complete] stuff. If they need to pull the trigger, they pull it instantly. I was very impressed with H2K.For him personally, he had fun going against two of the better bottom lanes in the tournament: H2Ks Forgiven and Vander, and EDGs Deft and Meiko. Jockster mentioned he learned a lot from playing against them.I think Brazil has become really passionate about esports. I honestly dont know why that is, he said. A lot of people like us, and a lot of people are watching us. Its getting bigger, and its showing up on television, so the [general public] is learning what League of Legends is. I think [esports] in Brazil is just going to get bigger, and the fan base is really, really amazing. They are really passionate about the game and [equally as] passionate about the teams. I think Brazil is amazing.The memory Jockster will take away most fondly from this tournament will be the sole win of the competition. It couldnt have come against a better team, with INTZ upsetting the giant from China, Edward Gaming, to start off the group in the most unexpected way possible. For us it was the biggest game of our lives. We always watched EDG, and we looked up to them. Every time we needed to get better and learn something, we watched EDG and tried to [copy] what they were doing and how to think, how they were thinking. I think the win against EDG is the memory that well keep with us for the rest of our lives.Yesterday, ANXs star support Likkrit stated in an interview with ESPN that he would like to meet Jockster in the quarterfinals or later in the tournament. While Jockster wont be able to meet Likkrit and ANX in Chicago for the bracket stage, he did have some words to share for the proclaimed League Jesus.I want to tell [Likkrit] hes a really good guy and a really good support. In Mexico, when they beat us, I started looking up to him and I learned a lot from him. He made me a better support, so I want to thank him for that. I wish him good luck in his next games, and I hope he can do well and show the world Wild Card is a really good region. Leonard Floyd Jersey . -- Patrick Reed got an early start in golf.

PARIS -- Anyone who thinks Mario Balotelli is not committed to his new club Nice should watch a replay of Wednesdays 4-0 home win against Monaco, and listen to the fans chanting his name when he came off late in the second half after scoring twice.The Italian striker has scored four goals in two league games since joining on a free transfer after an unhappy spell in England with Liverpool.La-la-la-la-la-la-la, Su-per Ma-rio the Nice fans at the Allianz Riviera sang over and over when he was taken off 12 minutes from the end.As well as being involved in a physical altercation with Monaco defender Jemerson, squaring up to the Brazilian defender in the first half, he worked hard for his teammates. They have clearly taken to the controversial player once tipped for greatness after breaking into the Inter Milan side as a lightning-quick 17-year-old.He must keep going like this, hell get back to the highest level if he stays professional in every way, Nice coach Lucien Favre said. After many difficult years, the way he recovers (physically) is going to be decisive in getting back to the top. Step by step, we will help him.He was mobbed after both of his goals, the first an excellent solo effort, the second a clinical finish.So much for the Balotelli criticized for being lazy in training by former Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers. Liverpools former stalwart defender Jamie Carragher openly mocked his move to Nice, saying on Twitter that even a free transfer was paying over the odds for Balotelli.Yet he has galvanized Nice, which sits top of the league, one point ahead of Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco.Ten days ago, Balotelli scored with a first-half penalty and with a late header in a 3-2 win against Marseille.His first goal was much more special this time.Midfielder Younes Belhanda picked him out in the 30th minute with a raking 40-meter pass across the field to where Balotelli was making a surging run down the right.He controlled it on his thigh, knocked it into his stride with the next touch, surged away from Jemerson. He then drew goalkeeper Danijel Subasic toward him before slotting the ball into the opposite corner.Midway through the second half, he latched onto a pass from defender Ricardo Pereira and calmly steered the ball past Subasic as if shooting in training.Cool finishing, for a player ridiculed for having scored only two league goals in the past two seaasons combined.ddddddddddddCaptain Paul Baysse and forward Alassane Plea scored the other goals.Balotellis career has been punctuated by antics such as letting off fireworks at his home when he played for Manchester City.He still hopes to win his place back for Italy -- more than four years after scoring both in a 2-1 victory over Germany in the 2012 European Championship semifinals.---LYON 5, MONTPELLIER 1Lyon midfielder Corentin Tolisso had an argument with Montpellier goalkeper Geoffrey Jourdren at halftime and smashed a goal past him from 25 meters in the second half.Montpellier led early on through midfielder Morgan Sanson but crumbled after defender Morgan Poaty was red-carded for a lunge on Tolisso.As Tolisso was doing a halftime television interview, Jourdren butted in.Youre injured? he asked sarcastically as Tolisso was speaking. Show me your injury, then.Tolisso walked off toward the players tunnel, with Jourdren talking in his ear.Having scored a first-half header, Tolisso blasted a superb angled shot past Jourdren to put Lyon 4-1 up.Nabil Fekir also scored twice, his first Lyon goals since scoring a hat trick against Caen on Aug. 29 last year.Forward Maxwell Cornet completed the scoring.---RENNES 3, MARSEILLE 2After blowing a 2-1 lead away to Nice 10 days ago, the same happened again to Marseille.Poland forward Kamil Grosicki scored a penalty in the 86th minute for Rennes and midfielder Adrien Hunou netted the winner two minutes later.Striker Bafetimbi Gomis scored both goals for the visitors, taking his tally to four in six games since joining from Swansea.Striker Giovanni So had put Rennes ahead late in the first half.---METZ 0, BORDEAUX 3Bordeaux is up to fourth place thanks to an effective strike trio.Brazilian teenager Malcom, Gaetan Laborde and Swedens Isaac Kiese Thelin all netted.---OTHER ACTIONGuingamp moved up to sixth after forward Jimmy Briands penalty earned a 1-0 win against Lorient in the Brittany derby. Meanwhile, 10-man Saint-Etienne drew 0-0 away to Nantes, with goalkeeper Stephane Ruffier saving a penalty from Nantes striker Emiliano Sala.Mid-table Angers beat Caen 2-1 while Nancy moved out of the relegation zone with a 0-0 draw at Bastia.Defending champion Paris Saint-Germain beat Dijon 3-0 on Tuesday.
