ESL African Championship: Energy tackles Damage Control, but can they hold on to the lead?

eSports

For the top three teams in the ESL African Championship, things are getting pretty heated in the standings table.

Energy is currently in first place (and have been there almost since the start) with 12 points, but they will be taking on Damage Control tonight at 19:00, who is in third place.

There are only three points separating the two teams, and if Damage Control manages to get away with the win tonight, Energy will lose their solo crown.

But if Damage Control wins tonight, they will only be top of the log for a short time. Bravado Gaming right now is in second spot with 10 points.

If they come away with a win tomorrow night against VexxedPhoenix, they will move into first with 13 points.

That is also assuming that Energy doesn't win their match. If they do, they will be a firm leader in the table with 15 points.

The current standings and results can be viewed here.

The second match for the night will start at around 21:30, when Big 5 eSports goes up against xTc Gaming.

All the group stages and the final will be live streamed and can be viewed on the ESL Africa Facebook page and on the official ESL CS:GO Twitch website.
