Sweden vs Spain Overwatch World Cup 2017 Sydney group stage finals highlights.

Spain goes up against Sweden in a high stakes match that will determine which team will be the ones to advance to BlizzCon 2017 for the Overwatch World Cup finals.

Spain was a team who looked shaky after their first day in the group stage as they attempted to figure out a game plan and mesh as a unit, but managed to recover later in the tournament. After identifying their lack of a D.Va, Spain tailored their strategy to compensate for the lack of a tank main as having EnVyUs' former DPS turned Lucio player Harryhook once again take up the Soldier:76 has proved to be one of their keys to success. Finland were the favorites to win their match against Spain, but in an unexpected turn of events, the Spanish team came out ahead and avoided a three-way tie in their group.During a pre-game interview, it was revealed that Harryhook had fallen ill, but has fortunately recovered in time for their match against Sweden.

Aside from their 2-2 match against Portugal on Day 1, Sweden has been dominating the competition. Even Team Australia who fielded a roster consisting entirely of the members of Blank Esports was not enough to stop this powerhouse team from making their way to the finals. Reinforced has been learning a new set of heroes in the absence of a primary tank player on his team and was adjusting to his role as the Winston by Day 2 of the event.

The difference this series came down to the difference in the mechanical abilities between the members of Sweden and Spain. By the end of the day, Sweden came out ahead in a 3-0 victory rush to punch their ticket and will be joining Australia at BlizzCon 2017 later this fall.
