Por um escritor misterioso
Descrição
Magnus Carlsen will play Etienne Bacrot in the FIDE World Cup quarterfinals today after surviving an incredibly tense tiebreaker against 19-year-old Andrey Esipenko, who inflicted a first loss of the event on Magnus to take their match all the way to blitz. The only other remaining Top 10 seed is Sergey Karjakin, who showed his class to knock out Maxime Vachier-Lagrave, while Jan-Krzysztof Duda defeated Alexander Grischuk. The women’s semi-finals are set, with Anna Muzychuk playing top seed Aleksandra Goryachkina after winning both tiebreak games against Nana Dzagnidze.
