Magnus Carlsen wins the Norway Chess tournament with a round to spare
Final Round 10 pairings Friday 16th 4pm BST: Carlsen-Aronian, Firouzja-Duda and Caruana-Tari.

Magnus Carlsen az Altibox Norway Chess 2020 szuperverseny győztese

A világbajnok Magnus Carlsen egy fordulóval a befejezés előtt már az Altibox Norway Chess 2020 szuperverseny győztese. A veren kilencedik fordulójában sötéttel 69 lépésben nyert a FIDE színeiben játszó Alireza Firouzja ellen.
Firouzja veresége ellenére megőrizte második helyét. Az örmény Lavon Aronjan
az Armageddon partit megnyerte a norvég Aryan Tarival szemben. Az amerikai Fabiano Caruana is a „hirtelen halál” partiban győzte le a lengyel Jan-Krzysztof Dudát. Az utolsó fordulóban többek között Levon Aronjan és Magnus Carlsen második összecsapására kerül sor.

Congratulations to Magnus Carlsen on winning #NorwayChess with a round to spare after an incredible end that saw Alireza Firouzja blunder when low on time in a pawn ending!

Magnus Carlsen: “It’s always pleasant to clinch a tournament & Alireza’s going to be around for a long time, so giving him a bit of an unpleasant memory – I think that’s not something that’s a bad thing for me. But obviously the game in itself wasn’t too memorable!”

 

 

I LOVE NORWAY CHESS ROCK 🙂

Congrats to @MagnusCarlsen on winning yet another top tournament! Right now nobody can oppose the World Champion.

 

Here’s Carlsen appearing in the confessional around move 15 vs Firouzja, showing a variation (with Nd5m Rd6 Bd8) in which he may have a TINY advantage.

Firouzja on playing White vs. Carlsen today: “I’m looking forward to the game. I think it’s going to be interesting. We’ll see!”
(With some media coaching hopefully he’ll be saying, “I’m going to crush him like a bug” soon!)

Carlsen mener han kan få en bitteliten fordel mot Firouzja, men at det sannsynligvis ender i remis. Her møtte han i skrifteboksen etter rundt 15 trekk.

 Did Firouzja just walk right into Carlsen’s trap? Pressed on the board and on the clock now. #NorwayChess

The moment where @MagnusCarlsen was exactly one hour up on the clock against Alireza Firouzja. What are your predictions for this game?

Kramnik: “This is becoming pretty dangerous already.” #NorwayChess
