The Danish Prime Minister celebrates Astralis\u2019 CS:GO Major win The Prime Minister of Denmark, Lars L\u00f8kke Rasmussen, is having a very busy week but that didn\u2019t stop him from keeping tabs on the progress of Astralis at the FACEIT London CS:GO Major. Astralis are, without a shadow of a doubt, the number one Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team on earth and they proved that point in London by defeating Natus Vincere convincingly in the Grand Final of the latest Valve sponsored Major. The Danes also tore through Team Liquid and FaZe Clan in 2-0 fashion in the playoff stages, meaning that, by the end of the competition, they had beaten the number four, number three and number two teams with ease. Lars L\u00f8kke Rasmussen was in New York City for the United Nations General Assembly discussing things that are probably a bit more important than a Counter-Strike match in London, but that didn\u2019t stop him from supporting his fellow Danes from afar! The prime minister congratulated the team after their semi-final win over Team Liquid and wished them good luck in the final, saying \u201cI\u2019m confident that your team can go all the way,\u201d then, when he was proven right he wasted no time in congratulating them! Excellent! :flag-dk: Good luck in the final. I\u2019m confident that your team can go all the way. \u2014 Lars L\u00f8kke Rasmussen (@larsloekke) September 22, 2018 S\u00e5 n\u00e5ede nyheden os til NYC: Stort tillykke til danske team @astralisgg med en overbevisende sejr! #ToTheStars #FACEITMajor #DR3CS \u2014 Lars L\u00f8kke Rasmussen (@larsloekke) September 23, 2018 According to PolemicFox on Reddit, the Tweet translates to \u201cThe news finally reached NYC. Congratulations to Danish team Astralis on a convincing victory.\u201d The level of dominance that Astralis showed in London suggests that Rasmussen will be congratulating the players many more times in the coming months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
