Tel Aviv A is double breaking at Galway Euros! That is in the open and in the ESL break. Something that is only possible at Euros, not at Worlds. Find the rest of the break to quarter finals below – we have it all for you: The open break as well as the ESL break. That was one exciting announcement … my goodness!<\/p>\n
The competitors of the open break have to be early birds: Debate starts at 9 a.m., …<\/p>\n
Quarter final 1:<\/p>\n
Quarter final 2:<\/p>\n
Quarter final 3:<\/p>\n
Quarter final 4:<\/p>\n
… while ESL competitors may sleep a little longer, apart from Tel Aviv A who will have to do both quarter finals. Well, if you’re really good, you have to be twice as good as the others! Good luck, mazal tov, Tel Aviv! Oh, and don’t forget to be there at 11 a.m. to support your favorite ESL team.<\/p>\n
Quarter final 1:<\/p>\n
Quarter final 2:<\/p>\n
Quarter final 3:<\/p>\n
Quarter final 4:<\/p>\n
Woooow, still excited! The Israelis really got it going, the Dutch too – and well, yes, our German boys and girls really rocked that tournament as well. Everybody’s having a good time now, enjoying another drink. Achte Minute will immediately go and hug everybody who did so well in the German crowd. Good night, everybody out there. Read more from us tomorrow from quarters.<\/p>\n
Oooops, almost forgot the judges break – among the judges of quarters are Isabelle Loewe and Jens Fischer. And then we just adopted Mark Manson to the German crowd – his parents live in Bayreuth. That counts, we’d say.<\/p>\n
