MANILA - Nexplay EVOS lost by default to Echo Philippines in their MPL - Philippines matchup, after failing to arrive on time ahead of their bout, league organizers announced Sunday.

"Adhering to the abovementioned rules, the MPL - PH operating committee has finally decided to declare ECHO as the winner of the match," MPL - Philippines said in a statement sent to reporters.

"To our beloved MPL - PH fans and viewers, we apologize for any inconveniences caused. Let's look forward to an even bigger week 5!" they added.
