Giri played it quickly, so he certainly knew the position well. 13. c1g5 A novelty. Gukesh thought for about 35 minutes before playing it. 13... h7h6  14. g5h4 A bold and surprising move, although objectively not correct. It's very brave on Gukesh's part to go for complications, sacrificing a piece instead of trying to force a draw after being outprepared in the opening. 14... g7g5 Giri correctly accepts the challenge. 15. f3g5  15... h6g5  16. h4g5  16... e6e5 Stopping e4-e5. 17. e2d2  17... c5e7 Removing the annoying pin. 18. g5h6 Getting back some of the material invested. 18... g8h7  19. h6f8  19... e7f8  20. f2f4
