FURIA beat Falcons 2-0 to reach first offline grand final in nearly two years

FalleN and company will meet The MongolZ in a best-of-five final on 21 September 2025 at 15:00, after closing out Falcons in two tight maps. FURIA controlled their map pick Train before surviving an intense late stretch to take the map in overtime. Yuri “yuurih” Santos was the standout, posting a monstrous 34-18 K-D on Train with 100.8 ADR and a 1.63 rating on that map, and finishing the series with 52-36, 89.2 ADR and a 1.32 rating across both maps. Danil “molodoy” Golubenko provided steady AWP support, while Mareks “YEKINDAR” Gaļinskis and Gabriel “FalleN” Toledo had impact moments that helped close rounds when it mattered.

The Falcons fought back repeatedly, with Maxim “kyousuke” Lukin and Nikola “NiKo” Kovač producing key multi-kills, and René “TeSeS” Madsen throwing in a heroic quad kill on Nuke. Still, Falcons squandered a 5v3 on Train at 12-11 and left openings that FURIA punished, including an MP9 3k from FalleN that swung momentum toward the Brazilians.

FURIA will get a shot at their first trophy since Elisa Masters Espoo 2023. The final between The MongolZ and FURIA is scheduled for September 21, 2025, at 15:00, as listed on the event page and the match page for The MongolZ vs FURIA.

On the win, yuurih said in a post-match interview, “We didn’t go through to the final for years, this is the first time with this team in a final. I’m just proud. We have been working a lot, three months already playing this game every day, 10-14 hours per day, so yeah, the work that we’re doing, we’re showing it right now.
