VBL Grand Final: ‘DETO’ through to semi-finals

Experience beats youth: The three-time world champion Kai ‘DETO’ Wollin today progressed to the semi-finals of the VBL Grand Final unbeaten after his successes in the Round of 16 and quarter-finals. The #B04eSports player is now one of the top four FIFA players in Germany in the 85 mode.

The otherwise calm Leverkusen FIFA player clenched his fist in victory: After a goalless draw in the first leg of the quarter-finals, ‘DETO’ came out on top in the return match with an impressive 5-0 victory over Stuttgart’s 18-year-old Lukas ‘LUKAS_1004’ Seiler. “A couple of things went right in the second match. I need to up my game even more in the next round to go through to the final,” said the 31-year-old.

The experienced PlayStation 4 player is in the semi-finals on Sunday, 28 June, at 12.05 CET (live on Free-TV at ProSieben Maxx) – this is also the day for the final. The opponent would be Mohammed ‘MOAUBA’ Harkous or Eleftherios ‘LEFTI_I’ Ilias. “Hats off for the performances to date in the Grand Final,” said Florian Dederichs, head of Internationalisation & eSports at Bayer 04 in praising the #B04eSports player.

‘DETO’ secured a 2-1 win in the Round of 16 game against Fürth player Fabio ‘FIFABIO97’ Sabbagh. The Leverkusen Xbox player Fabian ‘B04_DUBZJE’ went out at the group stage yesterday.
