Managed to find and attack the weak spot on my oponnent's lines on an early stage of the battle.

At that point I was lucky having my Panthers to ricochet a few 88mm shells that hit against their upper front hull at a very close distance, but on a reverse slope, maybe that gave the necessary angle to the shots to be uneffective.

If this attack action had failed, I would probably have lost the battle.

Kebranto is being too kind, his attack on my right threw me off balance pretty early as it was very much unexpected and I never recovered. Sure, some of our early 50/50 exchanges went his way and had they gone my way, perhaps he'd have regretted coming up. But overall I was reacting instead of doing what I needed to do. I got careless in other parts of the field and mercilessly punished for it. He played well, I didn't. A solid win for him, a few good lessons for me!
