Virolainen&#8217;s team. <\/p>\n<p>Monte led 11-7 on the favoured Terrorist side of Anubis and 9-4 on the CT side of Mirage. <\/p>\n<p>However, it seemed that the pressure got to the relatively inexperienced squad. <\/p>\n<p>NaVi&#8217;s ability to stay composed in clutch scenarios, especially on Mirage, and their prowess in late retakes turned the tide in their favour. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/natusvincere?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@natusvincere<\/a> cleanly take down <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Monte_Esports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Monte_Esports<\/a> 2-0 in the Semi Finals of <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ESLProLeague?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ESLProLeague<\/a> S18!<\/p>\n<p>16-12 Anubis<br \/>16-10 Mirage <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/W61SYCIxGn\">pic.twitter.com\/W61SYCIxGn<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash;
