🚨 Kings League World Cup: French clubs bow out 🥶
How hard it is. This Thursday evening, the quarter-finals of the Kings World Cup were played, featuring the Panam All Starz from Pfut and Unit3d with Squeezie, Maxime Biaggi, and Djilsi. Facing Fluxo, the Panam All Starz narrowly lost after a penalty goal from the Brazilian team (5-4). In the other Franco-Brazilian quarter-final, Unit3d was simply destroyed by Furia, who won 8-1 after leading 6-1 at halftime. There are therefore no more French clubs in the running, and the semi-finals will first pit Los Troncos FC against Fluxo FC, while Furia FC will challenge Ibai's Porcinos FC.
