Hungary have booked a place in the Clanbase NationsCup XIV group stage after getting a default win over Romania.

The two nations met each other on Sunday in the second qualifying round, with Romania claiming a 2-0 victory after winning de_nuke and de_train.

After the match, Hungary handed in a protest as two Romanian players did not have their respective Steam IDs entered in the GUIDS section, as rules state.

The Romanian duo had, however, their correct Steam IDs entered in their accounts, just in a different section.

According to the Clanbase's internal rulebook, the admin is required to validate the Steam IDs before the match starts.

Romania captain Dragos "KrieppeN" Karner told HLTV.org that, prior to the start of the encounter, his players asked the admin if everything was in place regarding their GUIDS, having received the green light to play the match in response.

Romania asked Hungary for the chance to replay the match, but after the latter refused to grant that request, they are out of NationsCup XIV.
