Alexander Morozevich Checkmates Magnus Carlsen By One Magical Knight | Blitz Chess Tal Memorial 2013.
Alexander Morozevich Vs Magnus Carlsen: 1-0.
Result: Alexander Morozevich won.

[@juan_caa11]

¿Who wins?

[@PravdinTV]

Juan- San white

[@MagnusAnand]

Carlsen loses. He has no escape, whatever he does, white is doing knight h6, check mate on one. Carlsen resigns before.

[@5alidal]

Juan- San We are all winners!

[@7asano5]

+ Guz Man but, what if he moved the pawn in h7? like he moves it to h5. Then if the knight checks the king, he moves to where the pawn was.

[@vegapunk172]

7asano5 Nxe7 if the pawn on h7 is moved.

[@bendixperschk5349]

[@PeaceFORever-]

One of the most underrated player . I remember in PCA 1995 he at age 17 attacked anand on king side with his pawn and beat him convincingly when anand was on top 3 .

[@pckho92]

Morozevich just like a song composer. He think hard and careful to set beautiful position (just like when song written, take long time). Then the final moment he show his opponent what he set and go for attack them really fast (just like when song finally played).

[@nilebarfield7175]

Got that ten minutes boys

[@HeisenbergBrB]

For anyone saying h6 or h5 and Magnus is saved. After either of those moves, Sasha can play Nxe7+, then Rxe7 (This is forced. If Magnus chooses to move the king, it will result in a mate in 2), Qxe7. This endgame will be lost for Magnus; those 2 passed pawn will fall, and the bishop won't be able to do anything.

Un ajedrez fino el de ALEXANDER precisó

[@Urubosrt]

Resigning was a blunder. h5 would lead to a longer game, preventing any immediate threats, and making time control the only real threat. Even if it was an armageddon or if he had to win for another reason, it is not clear that he would lose on time, since they both were totally and similarly low on time.

[@AKhan0372]

h5 does not stop Nex7 (check) which wins on the spot. Black had no choice but resign.

[@alvaroalva7532]

morozevitch always wins magnus

[@detherocablest7054]

That knight manoeuvre came out of nowhere and with catastrophic effects. I was so sure Magnus had this.

[@guidopasero]

Why at 7:11 Morozevich did not take the a7 pond with his Q? Why, same position, he did not check with the Kn, forcing black K to b8, and then taking his Q with the same Kn? Are these possible solution? Thank you :)

[@Monkeyabroad]

RIGHT! After the check, he could have gotten a mate

[@crystalglows6864]

Miguel Swartz did anyone answer why he didn't do that? Are we missing something??

[@michaelscott8908]

The kid with the green shirt sure is annoying

[@theurbanninjas7772]

that's why he lost xD

[@bugisami]

Didn't notice the kid because Morozevich's fiddling was driving me INSANE.

[@LeelooMinai]

Well, at least the kid did not grab the pawn from Morozevich hand, slam the clock button with it, and then took the shirt off and put it on Carlsen's head.

[@michaelscott8908]

Leeloo Minai kids still annoying

[@LeelooMinai]

@michael scott: I think this was the fastest response I have ever seen in a comment section. And I just imagined you sitting there with a chess clock that has the button wired to the Enter key on the keyboard :)

[@ebooog69]

I'm not great at chess so I'm assuming I'm missing something, but at 6:25 why wouldn't white use the queen to take out the pawn guarding the king? Wouldn't that essentially check mate Magnus?

[@Overkill7200]

Chess Studio why didn't black rook take white rook at 6:30?

[@tsemeb3956]

You are right. It was a check mate.

[@hernanweber3896]

+Tse Meb it wasnt... black moves

[@tsemeb3956]

hernan weber what do you mean black moves. What happens if queen takes H7 at 6:25

[@hernanweber3896]

+Tse Meb ohhhhh i didnt realize it you have right... i missed dat rook on f7 it was mate

[@OldmanNix]

nerve wrecking to even watch :)

[@iisdjuhara6656]

this is amazing

[@fibonacci112358s]

At @7:47, White plays Nxg6+, and the queen is no longer pinning Black's h-pawn. Isn't the knight en prise then? Why did Magnus play Kg7 instead of just hxg6?

[@krishnarajpawooskar1422]

fibonacci112358s QH4 check and you lose the rook

[@Jamon-sh6li]

Magnus saw that if he moves his h pawn he will lose both rooks for nothing and his pass pawns will not promote. (Black: ....h5, knxR+ ; Kh7, Qg6+; Kh8 QxR+; Kh7, Qg6+...) Great grandmasters

[@alexandersukhoi9117]

I think he should have used Rg7 move at @8:42 but instead he moved the king which led him to a forced checkmate..

[@petridevilliers6756]

:Could Morozevich not have moved queen to H7 @7:39?

[@geraldsiahaan5991]

The time when commentator said opa opa, seemed like he found the checkmate one

[@ankushzap]

but there was no checkmate here. wrong title

Гениальная партия!

[@aminedone7556]

Three time repetition claimable, Black to move Last: 53.Nf5

[@zanch100]

Why morozevich doesnt play chess anymore?

[@ShawnChess]

Idk, I think the real hero was the light square bishop. The knight on C3 is was so useless that in the blitz game he determined that he could sack it for great complications and a long term initiative. But that bishop was influencing so much pressure against the king throughout the game. With it constantly threatening to sack itself and rip open the king.

[@maxellcore446]

Wrong title!!!!! It was not a checkmate; Magnus resigned because he was going to be checkmated in 2 moves.

[@lamlytegg4532]

at 7:44 white check black with knight. why black didnt ate it with pawn?

[@omshukla2612]

Queen h4 and free rook on d8

What the problem with this time watch? Is it really a world professional chess game? Does it normal time randomly increase so many times like this on a world tournement?

[@omaralaa9236]

I'm not good at chess but WHAT would happen if black played pawn to h6 or h5 to make a square for his king then promoted his pawn and thus a queen and two rocks would be on the same line. What can the white do? PLEASE I want to learn.

Will it be distracting for the player if an opponent keeps playing with a pawn simultaneously

[@ВесёлыйГений-о5ц]

[@Jason-bx2od]

Last move for black he could go pawn h6,thus let h7 square free for a king move after check! right? Btw great battle and ty for uploading this!

[@Jason-bx2od]

So i checked the comment section and i see now,its funny i thought i really found Carlsen's mistake...

[@BennyBlawnk]

..Rg7 can't save the mate? Please help me with this one

[@Yuri-sd6gm]

Why didn't Carlsen move his Rook to the front of Morozevich's Queen, then making Morozevich run away with his Queen (for not to have his Queen killed by Magnus' King), then Magnus getting out of check moving his King to the right, then making his own pawn into Queen - one square from it? Magnus would win the match, no? He would have Queen + 2 rooks against Queen + 1 horse. I didn't understand his resignment. Seemed to me as a blunder or his big ego afraid of suffering a check-mate. Maybe it was a tournament where he didn't need the victory, whatever. I didn't understand. If someone can explain me, it would be cool.

[@chenabnagar6903]

How was it a checkmate without a check?

[@MATHSWISDOM]

why not throwing dice ?

[@marcostrujillo1492]

That voice of the woman narrator is so nice...

[@mauriciomadrid1591]

At 8:13 he should not have played Cc5? d5 looks strange killing his bishop scope

[@adiltheprodigy8235]

9:06 Alexander checks his hand telling that you are mate come one but carlsen did not listen to him so he got mate after 😊

[@sarthokbhattacharya1934]

wasn't that a draw by the "same position of pieces thrice" rule? am I missing something?

[@AKhan0372]

3-fold repetition is a draw only if you claim it (if it's your move). If you don't claim it and the opponent makes a new move ending the repetition, then it's not a draw.

[@trtejendra6672]

7:43 knight cannot be taken because of Qh4+ forking to king and rook at d8

[@neonlight1203]

[@Xaocka]

Awesome match!

[@algol291]

Misleading click-bait title to the video. Resigning is not checkmate. I spent fifteen minutes trying to find how white was going to checkmate black with only a knight and his queen, pausing the video.

[@1001011011010]

algol291 It still would be checkmate next move or in a couple moves (knight goes to h6, right in front of the pawn). The only move that would prevent this on the whole board is pawn to h6. However, then knight simply takes rook, which leaves rook taking knight as the ONLY legal move, which leads to queen taking rook and eyeing down the pawns to be promoted: completely lost endgame for black. Carlsen was right to resign.
