Jönköping, Sweden (GotFrag) - The world's largest LAN event once again plays host to one of the most highly anticipated qualifiers for the 2007 ESports World Cup. The top eight Swedish based Counter-Strike teams are all in Jönköping to compete for the opportunity to represent their nation in Paris at the ESWC Finals in July. However, to do that they must overcome a wealth of talent.

Three of arguably the best teams in the World will be competing in the qualifier. Fnatic, CPL Winter 2006 Champions, earned their spot after winning the first Pre-Qualifier at Inferno Online. SK Gaming followed suit at the second Inferno Qualifier, a tournament that saw Begrip fall just short of qualifying. Last but not least, NiP took the most recent drop-in pre-qualifier on Saturday after defeating Begrip, however, both teams did qualify for todays Final.

Once again, GotFrag will be on-site in Jönköping to provide LIVE coverage of the 2007 ESWC Sweden Finals. Make sure to stay locked on GotFrag as we will be your source for exclusive match statistics (Powered by Gamesense) along with HLTVs, galleries, demos and scorebots.
