Game 13 | FULL PRESS CONFERENCE | FIDE World Chess Championship 2024

[@Babypuchuu]

Damn...ding calculated gukesh's position more than gukesh himself..man can calculate...

[@David-i8i]

Both Gukesh and Ding seem like really nice guys. It makes the match much more pleasant to watch compared to some of the dour characters in previous world championship matches.

[@damiester1]

Yeah this match really felt like a feel-good tournament.

[@InessentialMotionPictures]

Yeah no Kramshit

[@spasshky]

Ian?

[@nathanbell2601]

Regardless of the final result, I think Gukesh can be very proud of how he has performed up to this point. He’s made Ding work very hard to defend his title every step of the way. Hoping Gukesh can clinch the title!

[@dragileinchen1485]

I dont really feel as tho he deserves it. He was a clear favorite, always has good opening ideas but never converts them. In this sense, it feels like Ding is superior when it comes to pure chess performance without timepressure and the problems that Gukesh manages to create, seem to be induced by his team.

[@nathanbell2601]

@ It’s hard to say on that last point how many of these ideas are purely coming from Gukesh’s team as opposed to him coming up with them, himself. Converting advantages against an opponent like Ding can’t be easy, either. He defends better than most other top players, imo. Personally I’m still very impressed with Gukesh doing as well as he has at his age. No one his age has even made it to a world championship match before, and the score being tied by game 14 is pretty wild. May the best player win!

[@LunnarisLP]

@@dragileinchen1485 Pretty sure especially the world championship match has been majorly impacted by the teams crated by the challenger and champion for the last couple decades. Creating a good team is also part of being a world champion these days. Just like someone running a marathon world record depend on his team, his trainers, multiple runners for pacing, good shoes and so on.

[@JyotiAgarwalofficial]

I love gukesh his character is so good in such a age i couldn't myself imagine to be that positive and to be in such a great mooment where you can feel your dream in reality and so close to dream hatts off to you gukesh best of luck for tomorrow go gukesh !❤

[@hocuspocus6681]

Honestly just wanna hug Ding. He's so sweet.

[@yosefouad2116]

Me too

[@osos718]

Gukesh is only 18, already tons of respect regardless.

[@JamesCaserta-e8c]

Gukesh represents the new breed and Ding the last sentinel of the old guard.

[@Junder7661]

First / who think DingLiren Win 👇

[@krishankumar2884]

I can bet

[@babjiparamathma1890]

Gukesh will win

[@jeantharappel6633]

Of course he's the favourite now, Ding won't lose the last game with white and he's the clear favourite in rapid

[@krishankumar2884]

@@babjiparamathma1890 lets bet if i lose i will be happy that gukesh won and if i won we will get something in return

[@bombaymoncada9837]

Advantage is on Ding now...

[@JyotiAgarwalofficial]

When gukesh said just enjoy match my heart melts he knew that he has winning chances today but he missed even after that he said I am excited for tomorrow how can someone be that positive I just love your character gukesh in such a young age you are respectable in my heart ❤️ even though I know ding is going to win world chess championship but you will great experience from that in such a age I love the fact that you are so positive and so humble ❤️ I am always going to be your fan 😊

[@SSq-13]

Last game was a fantastic attacking game by ding and this was fantastic game at defending

[@souparnika9457]

Ding is so done with the questions.

[@anotherelvis]

I love the way that Maurice is lecturing the players after the game :-)

[@freenfeminine]

People who says 'gm Maurice looks bored' doesn't know about professionalism. He just wanted it to be done neatly. And players were already so tired, need to prepare for tomorrow, that s some WORLD championship stuff. Everything was just okay. And rooting for you, Ding👑.

[@kailashganesh]

Whenever Gukesh plays forcefully, Ding suddenly gets more power and forces Gukesh to Draw. Ding is underdog n he has held Gukeshs attacks nicely, let's see what hapoens tommorrow

[@lostinthehills1482]

As a half black man I am proud to see the lead commentator in between the two as Maurice Ashley. What a guy, well done.

[@OGFury]

Except he's a bit stiff in my opinion

[@jonathanbade]

As a human and african man I’m disappointed in you

[@lostinthehills1482]

@jonathanbade don't care. You Africans did not face the level of discrimination the American blacks have/are. We are considered stupid in this country and I want to congratulate a black man from Brooklyn, one of the hardest places to grow up for beating the odds and being a top rated chess player of ALL TIME.

[@insensibility]

Excited for tomorrow!

[@rishabhrastogi17]

[@thejewelledparrot2818]

​@@ManishSharma-zx1cg he meant last time (the previous championship cycle) was more stressful than defending this one.

[@davidcole2814]

GM Gukesh, Good Luck!🤞🤞 The chess world needs you as the new and youngest world chess champion 2024... And we also hope you can become the best chess player in the world. Please do not disappoint us. 🙏 GM Ding is a fair and resilient world chess champion... But he is not close to being the best chess player in the world...

[@davidcole2814]

Congratulations!!!... GM Gukesh, World Chess Champion 2024!!! 🏆👑 You answered our prayers! Thank GOD Almighty! 😁

[@anisaktouche9150]

They look ultra tired poor them, but the stakes are really high they have to be tired or else they're doing something wrong

[@sguria83]

Gukesh ,this time you going to win with black Piece-Prove black also King! Like our superstar Rajinikanth ,dont be stress to move your piece,remember you are 18,smart n unique in your own way,stay calm,put aside ur winning,read ur game n Ding style,break his defense

[@curious_banda]

Chup hoja stop the cringe

[@Gravity-g-9.8]

Let gukesh and his game make the sound

[@coatiguriguazu]

"Santiago Rivairo from The Edinburgh Press. I have a question for Maurice Ashley. Is there any relationship between your GM title and the size of your head? Thank you"

[@Too_cool2000]

The best question of all time 😂

[@DineshKumar-xl2yi]

Again nemo camp up with stupid question

[@Shuribusan]

That seemed fine question, not stupid the previous amusement park thingy or whatever she asked was stupid but according to her fun 🤡. Apart from that she did fine but yeah that question alone is so stupid

[@AV-kr1do]

DING GONNA WIN 😄

[@Speaking_for_IELTS]

Ding has difficulty understanding questions and expressing his ideas clearly because of his language barrier.

[@ratinahat2544]

@@Speaking_for_IELTS I mean you could also say because of his limitations, his answers are very clear and coherent. He never overcomplicates things.

whats up with Maurice's eyebrow.
