1. e2e4  1... c7c5  2. g1f3  2... d7d6  3. d2d4  3... c5d4  4. f3d4  4... g8f6  5. b1c3  5... a7a6  6. c1e3  6... f6g4 This move remains one of the most reliable ways to fight the English attack. 7. e3c1  7... g4f6  8. c1e3  8... f6g4  9. e3g5  9... h7h6  10. g5h4  10... g7g5  11. h4g3  11... f8g7  12. h2h3  12... g4e5  13. d4f5  13... c8f5  14. e4f5  14... b8c6 The arising positions can hardly be called Najdorf, but they are full of tactics and in-depth strategy due to the piece imbalances. 15. c3d5  15... e7e6  16. f5e6  16... f7e6  17. d5e3  17... d8a5  18. c2c3  18... e5f3  19. g2f3  19... g7c3  20. b2c3  20... a5c3  21. d1d2  21... c3a1  22. e3d1 It is not surprising that one of the key Najdorf specialists has played this position already twice.

It is the position of his king which demands care. 26... a8c8  27. h3h4 The most direct approach to make it to the black king. Dominguez spent approximately 44 minutes on this move $1 27... f8f4 Firouzja understands well what might happen once his king is exposed. 28. d2d3 Sneaking towards the king. 28... f4h4 The rook swap eliminates the immediate kingside danger. 29. d3g6  29... g8f8  30. h1h4  30... g5h4  31. g6h6  31... f8e7  32. h6h4
