1. d2d4  1... g8f6  2. c2c4  2... e7e6  3. g2g3  3... d7d5  4. f1g2  4... d5c4  5. g1f3  5... a7a6  6. e1g1  6... b8c6  7. c1e3 Quite a fresh idea. 7... f6d5  8. d1c1  8... d5e3 An accurate move and a novelty. 9. c1e3 The correct choice. 9... f8e7  10. f1c1  10... e8g8 Going into slow developing mode. 11. c1c4  11... c8d7  12. a2a3 An accurate move. Despite Black's bishop pair, it  is White that has the easier play. The position is closed, and the bishops cannot show their strength, whereas White can easily expand on the  kingside, thanks to her strong center. 12... a6a5  13. b1d2  13... a5a4  14. f3e5 Prolonging the diagonal for the bishop. 14... c6a5 Quite original, Black is bringing her pieces out. 15. c4c2  15... d7b5  16. a1e1 A smart move, which is overprotecting the e2-pawn. 16... a8a6 Once more an original maneuver by Kosteniuk! 17. h2h4  17... a6d6  18. e3c3  18... c7c6  19. e2e3  19... f7f6 This, however, is a very risky decision. Kosteniuk  does not want to wait patiently and instead wants to open her bishops. But she needs to pay with a pawn for that. 20. e5f3  20... e6e5 The logical follow-up, but White has a strong counterblow at  her disposal. 21. b2b4 Now Goryachkina wins a pawn by force. 21... a4b3  22. d2b3  22... a5b3  23. c3b3  23... g8h8  24. a3a4  24... b5a6  25. d4e5  25... d6d3  26. c2c3  26... d3c3  27. b3c3  27... f6e5  28. c3e5  28... c6c5 For the  pawn Kosteniuk got the bishop pair and a strong outside passer. It was  evident after the game that she enjoyed her compensation. 29. h4h5  Goryachkina logically accomplishes her kingside expansion. 29... c5c4  30. h5h6  30... e7f6  31. h6g7  31... f6g7  32. e5h5  32... d8f6 This obvious move,  however, fails concretely and should have led to a disaster. 33. f3g5 Going all-in. Goryachkina feels that this is the right thing  to do. 33... f6f2  34. g1h2  34... f2c2 The only move. The white bishop remains pinned. Both  players were very low on time but found amazing resources. 35. e3e4 If Goryachkina manages to block the opponent's main defender,  her attack should emerge victorious. 35... h7h6  36. g5f7 Maybe White  wanted to repeat the moves once in time trouble to reach the time control  and only then find the accurate solution. Alas, she would not get a second chance after this. 36... h8g8 Once again the only move. 37. h5d5 A seemingly decisive ambush, however White is about to be  shocked. 37... c4c3 A cold shower! There are so many discovered checks, a  double check as well, but none of them leads White anywhere. Kosteniuk  thought that her opponent missed this move. 38. f7h6  38... g8h7  39. h6f7  39... c2f2 A double attack in time trouble! 40. f7g5 The last move before the time control and Goryachkina steps on  the edge of the abyss again. 40... h7g6 Suddenly it is Black who is attacking the opponent's king.  41. e1h1 Black felt that she should win somehow by force now; she has  spent almost all her time. 41... f2d4  42. g5h3 The only defense. 42... d4d5
