1. e2e4  1... c7c5  2. g1f3  2... d7d6  3. d2d4  3... c5d4  4. f3d4  4... g8f6  5. b1c3  5... g7g6 An interesting  choice. Carlsen does not stick to any solid opening but chooses instead  one of the sharpest Sicilian lines: the Dragon. 6. c1e3  6... f8g7  7. f2f3  7... a7a6 A  rare move. [Turning it into a Dragondorf - ed.]. 8. d1d2  8... h7h5  9. f1c4  9... b8d7  10. c4b3  10... d7c5  11. e1c1 Grischuk follows the classical  traditions and develops a piece with every move that he makes. 11... b7b5  12. c1b1  12... c8b7  13. a2a3  13... c5b3  14. c2b3  14... a8c8 Natural and strong. 15. d4c2 Grischuk tries to block the central pawns and deprive his  opponent of any counterplay. 15... d8c7  16. e3d4 This regrouping is what the Russian GM had in mind.  d6-d5 is no longer possible, or at least it seems so. 16... e8g8  Missing the moment. 17. d2f2 Another excellent prophylaxis. 17... e7e5 A move too late, and it no longer works. The Sicilian Defense, ladies and gentlemen! 18. d4b6 With tempo. 18... c7d7  19. c2b4 If White manages to install a knight on d5, Black's position  will become strategically lost; therefore... 19... c8c3 ...was played  without hesitation. 20. b2c3  20... d7e6  21. b1b2  21... f8c8 Still hoping for a much needed tempo to build  enough initiative, but Grischuk will never give it. 22. b6a5  22... d6d5  23. f2a7  23... b7a8  24. b4a6 Again the strongest move. Grischuk plugs in the  half-open c-file and stops any attacking options. 24... g7f8  25. a6c7  25... e6e7  26. c7b5  26... e7e8  27. b5c7  27... e8e7  28. a5b6 That is it! Everything is defended, and White is trading the key attackers. 28... d5e4  29. c7a8  29... e7a7  30. b6a7  30... c8a8  31. a7f2  31... f8a3  32. b2c2  32... a3e7  33. d1a1 The endgame is lost  for Carlsen. 33... a8c8  34. h1d1  34... e4f3  35. g2f3  35... e5e4  36. f3e4  36... f6e4
