1. d2d4  1... d7d5  2. g1f3  2... g8f6  3. c1f4  3... c7c5  4. e2e3 Quite a fashionable line for rapid  and blitz events these days. 4... b8c6  5. b1d2  5... d8b6  6. d4c5  6... b6b2  7. a1b1  7... b2c3  8. f1b5 White's pawn structure is crippled, but he is ahead in development and that's definitely to the taste of Aronian. 8... g7g6  9. e3e4  9... f8g7 This might not be accurate, at least according to the engine. 10. f4e5 A strong novelty. 10... c3a5  11. e4d5  11... a7a6  12. b5c6  12... b7c6  13. d5d6 In order to expose the king. So is  careful though and answers 13... e8g8  14. d6e7  14... f8e8 Still, Black's  position is not perfectly safe, and he needs a few tempi to collect the  e7-pawn and finish the development. In the meantime, Aronian will create a lot of trouble. 15. e1g1  15... a5c5 Best again. 16. f1e1 Bringing the rooks in. But there is an even better idea. 16... c8f5  17. e5d4 Here and on the next moves, White could have played the h2-h3  prophylaxis. 17... c5d5  18. b1b3  18... c6c5  19. e1e5 Aronian has a very concrete idea in mind. 19... d5d7  20. d4c5  20... f6e4 And this allows White a chance to demonstrate  his idea. 21. b3d3  21... d7b7  22. d2e4 That's the point! For the exchange Aronian  removes the two light pieces that could worry his e7-passer. But what's  more, he opens the dark squares around the enemy king and launches an  attack against it at once. 22... g7e5  23. f3e5  23... b7e4  24. d3d8 Obvious  and dangerous for Black. 24... g8g7 This loses on the spot. Two other moves deserve serious  attention. 25. f2f3 White opens air for the king and kicks away the queen from its  strong position. What more can you expect from a move?
