The finals of the Barrysworld European Quake3 Championship began bright and early this morning and the first results for Group A are now in. The event, taking place throughout the weekend at The Playing Fields in London features the eight surviving national teams from the on-line qualifiers which have been taking place over the past few months.

Slovenia 2 - 0 Belgium Russia 2 - 0 Finland Sweden 2 - 0 Belgium Ireland 0 - 2 Finland

These two losses mean Belgium - a country not famous for their sporting prowess - are now out of the competition. They faced a difficult group however - tournament favourite Swedish team crucified them 320-83.
