The European Championship in Germany is fast approaching and has a virtual equivalent in FC 24. The DFB has now presented its representative for this
In a short clip on “X” (formerly Twitter), the German eFootball Federation published its decision in favor of Umut Gültekin from RBLZ. This was explained by eNational coach Daniel ‘Fehrminator’ Fehr. “Umut has become our eNational player because he is there when you need him,” said Fehr, praising the reliability of his protégé, whom he knows very well from Leipzig.
In addition, the Hamburg player has a tournament mentality that was also attributed to the national soccer team for many years. “He’s always shown that he outgrows himself – especially at big tournaments,” says his coach, “He’s always calm during the game. He can concentrate so well and gets into the flow so well. So I’m very confident that he’ll do well. “
Incredible winning streak ahead of the next chapter?
In fact, the glimmering title hopes are not just a pipe dream, as the duo Fehr and Gültekin stand for success like no other in FC eSport. For years, the two have been among the absolute national and international elite, both as part of the Leipzig squad and at individual level. German team and individual championships, the DFB-ePokal, the FIFAe World Cup and FIFAe Club World Cup – ‘Fehrminator’ and ‘RBLZ_Umut’ have won them all.
Will the next triumph come with the FC-24-eEuro? The tournament will enter the online group stage in March. In this phase, the final round participants will be determined by double elimination with upper and lower brackets. There will be eight places up for grabs in the final offline event in July, where the European crown and prize money of 100,000 US dollars will be contested in a classic knockout system with single elimination.
