1. e2e4  1... e7e5  2. g1f3  2... b8c6  3. f1c4  3... f8c5  4. c2c3  4... g8f6  5. d2d3  5... d7d6  6. b2b4 [%c_effect b4;square;b4;type;Interesting;persistent;true] Another of the many possible attempts in the Italian, an opening very rich in strategic ideas. Some strong GMs tried this move recently. 6... c5b6  7. a2a4  7... a7a5 The natural reaction. 8. b4b5  8... c6e7  9. b1d2  9... e8g8  10. e1g1  10... e7g6 By far the most popular move. 11. d3d4 Only the fifth most popular move, but Caruana has tried it last year. 11... e5d4 [%c_effect d4;square;d4;type;Inaccuracy;persistent;true] Taking on d4 and then playing d6-d5 is thematic, but not the most accurate plan. 12. c3d4  12... d6d5 The logical continuation after the previous move, but this worsens Black's position. 13. e4d5  13... f6d5  14. d1b3 The position is much worse for Black than it seems. The knight cannot stabilize well on d5 and the bishops point dangerously from c4 and possibly a3. 14... c7c6 The first new move of the game. 15. f1e1 Black's moves, if not the most accurate, were very natural, so I imagine that all of this was still Abdusattorov's preparation. White has achieved a big advantage and it will become even bigger in the coming moves. 15... d5b4  16. d2e4  16... c6b5 [%c_effect b5;square;b5;type;Mistake;persistent;true] Now it becomes really bad for Black. Opening the a-file helps White. 17. a4b5 Now Ba3 comes with even more strength, as there are tactical ideas related to capturing the knight on b4 and then the rook on a8. 17... c8f5  18. f3g5 [%c_effect g5;square;g5;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] Attacking the weak pawn on f7. 18... d8d7  19. c1a3 This is good, but there was a forced win available already. 19... a8d8  20. a3b4  20... a5b4  21. e4c5 [%c_effect c5;square;c5;type;Mistake;persistent;true] We get an unexpected exchange of errors between two players who calculate spectacularly well—some positions are just too complicated. 21... d7c7 [%c_effect c7;square;c7;type;Mistake;persistent;true] 22. a1c1 White is in control again. 22... g6f4 White has many tempting continuations and it's difficult to choose a move in these cases. 23. c4f7 [%c_effect f7;square;f7;type;Mistake;persistent;true] This tempting move allows Black to escape. 23... g8h8 [%c_effect h8;square;h8;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] 24. b3f3  24... h7h6 [%c_effect h6;square;h6;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] 25. c5b7  25... f4e2 [%c_effect e2;square;e2;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] Great defense by Navara. On a personal note, I want to say that the legendary Czech GM has always been one of my favorite players. 26. f3e2  26... c7b7  27. c1c6 [%c_effect c6;square;c6;type;Mistake;persistent;true] A beautiful move that, unfortunately for White, has a refutation. 27... b6d4 [%c_effect d4;square;d4;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] Now Black has a decisive advantage. 28. g1h1  28... f8f7 [%c_effect f7;square;f7;type;Blunder;persistent;true] The game is suddenly over the other way round after this blunder. 29. c6d6 [%c_effect d6;square;d6;type;Brilliant;persistent;true][%cal dc6d6][%c_arrow c6d6;keyPressed;none;from;c6;opacity;0.8;to;d6;persistent;false] What a move and what a sensational game. Now White is winning. 29... d8c8  30. g5f7  30... b7f7  31. d6d4 It's all over. White is up an exchange and a pawn. 31... b4b3  32. b5b6  32... c8c2  33. e2f3  33... b3b2
