1. e2e4  1... c7c5  2. g1f3  2... b8c6  3. f1b5  3... g7g6  4. e1g1  4... f8g7  5. b5c6  5... b7c6  6. f1e1  6... g8h6  7. c2c3  7... e8g8  8. d2d4  8... c5d4  9. c3d4  9... d7d5  10. e4e5  10... f7f6  11. h2h3  11... f6e5  12. d4e5  12... c6c5  13. b2b4 A powerful way to attack the (almost) hanging central pawns. 13... c5b4  14. a2a3  14... d5d4 And a good practical decision by Dubov in  return. The Russian GM brings out his light-squared bishop at the price of a pawn and forces his opponent into defense. 15. a3b4  15... c8b7  16. b1d2  16... a7a5  17. a1a5  17... a8a5  18. b4a5  18... d8a5  19. f3d4  19... h6f5 At the end of the  day, Dubov sacrificed a pawn. In return he has brought back his knight  into the game and developed his remaining pieces aggressively. Carlsen has to watch out. 20. d4f3  20... a5d5  21. c1b2  21... g7h6  22. e5e6  22... f8d8  23. d1e2  23... d5d3 Forcing an endgame where  all the pawns are on the same flank and where the exposed e6-pawn will be  soon lost. 24. e2d3  24... d8d3  25. d2e4  25... b7e4 The same strategy as before. 26. e1e4  26... h6g7  27. b2e5  27... g7e5  28. f3e5  28... d3d1  29. g1h2  29... g8g7 Dubov is ready to  pick up the pawn, but Carlsen keeps squeezing more water out of this  stone. 30. g2g4  30... f5d6  31. e4e3  31... g6g5  32. h2g2  32... h7h6  33. e5c6  33... g7f6  34. e3f3  Otherwise, Dubov would have selected Nd6-c8, defending the pawn on e7, and then he would have regained the one on e6 for free with the Rd1-d6xe6  maneuver. 34... f6e6  35. f3e3  35... e6f6  36. c6e7  36... d6c4  37. e3e4  37... c4d6  38. e4e2  38... d1d3  39. e7c6  39... d6f7 The beginning of a nice maneuver. 40. e2e3  40... d3d7  41. e3a3  41... f7h8 The point. The knight finds the best outpost. 42. c6b8  42... d7b7  43. a3a6  43... f6g7  44. b8c6  44... h8g6  45. c6d4  45... g6h4 The right square. From here the  knight defends the vital f5-spot. 46. g2g3  46... b7b1 Time trouble starts to  tell now. 47. f2f4 Now Carlsen gets a realistic chance. 47... b1g1  48. g3f2  48... g1g2  49. f2f1  49... g2d2 The black pieces are active but vulnerable. 50. d4e6
