Javier Romero, JRA10, eSports player of RC Celta and Falcons club, brilliantly sealed his pass to the finals of the FIFA 22 World Cup played in Copenhagen and is already among the top 16 in the world. He reached this historic milestone after advancing from the group stage in fourth place with five wins, two draws and seven defeats.
The FIFAe World Cup 2022 is the equivalent of the World Cup. It is the main official tournament of EA Sports’ popular FIFA video game and has a prize purse of US$500,000. JRA10 has come a long way this season to reach the finals. Last May he was runner-up in eLaLiga at the finals held in Madrid after losing in an epic final that was decided on penalties. This runner-up spot allowed the RC Celta eSports player to compete in the FIFA Global Series, held two weeks ago in London. It was in the English capital where he obtained the final ticket for the final in Copenhagen.
Once the group stage is over, the World Cup was decided this Saturday and Sunday in the knockout round. JRA10 competed in the first round of 16 against Bachoore (Netherlands) at 14:20 on Saturday, a duel in which our player fell defeated by 5-2 in a best-of-two knock-out (3-2, 2-0).
JRA10 closes with the participation in this tournament, his second season as a member of the RC Celta eSports section. The player from Madrid was accompanied in Copenhagen by the staff of Falcons, his eSports club, led by his coach and manager Javier Villoria.
