This chess thing has really picked up in the last few years. I like how they took an online game and made the pieces and stuff so it could be played in real life.

[----]

Meeting an actual legend is a once in a life time opportunity. But beating one, at 17 and not even cracking a celebratory dance after that handshake? Love this kid.

[kobz]

In 17 minutes they both had to think about their decisions more than me in my whole life

[marcosgarciagracia]

When this kid is 30+ years old and the best in the world, he will lose to a teenager. History repeats itself. Over and over.

[CarlitosPR]

Is not the first time this kid has given Magnus so much trouble, this time he won instead of a draw. Amazing talent

[МуҳаммадсодиқАбдуллаев]

Нодирбек отангизга рахмат !!! Жуда чиройли ва ақлли ўйин бўлибди !!!
Ўзбекистон фахрисиз !!!

[fungoorstitch]

For those who don't know why he won, he won because he forced a queen trade with his last move in the game, clearing the way for his last remaining pawn (white) to be promoted to queen before Magnus' last remaining pawn could. Never underestimate the danger of a far-advancing pawn.

[stulaganov]

7+ months after this game, Nodirbek and his young team of Uzbekistan made a history in Chennai by obtaining gold medal of the Olympiad. The team did not loose throughout any of the 11 rounds, where more than 2500 GM's were competing from around the world.

Do I know anything about chess? No. Did I watch the whole video? Yes.

[theAdilaryan]

the end game was crazy, he defended his own pawn while simultaneously attacking the king AND the black pawn while forcing a position which carlsen wasnt too happy to end in. really phenomenal.

[IFuzzyWuzzy]

You can see the stress slowly begin to set in. The kids damn good

[tommymandal-gjlga]

He's shaking, the youngster.. Well done!

[austinbaker]

The moment when you reach the end of the video, then rewind to realize it's all been about that pawn from the beginning or at least the middle. The whole game was pressing the advantage and moving that one pawn to that last row, there was not a moment when it wasn't protected. A true war of attrition at the end, wearing down his time so he had to rush his moves. Incredible

[nuhyoney]

Türkiyeli bir Türk yenmiş kadar sevindim. Özbekistanlı kardeşimi gönülden tebrik ediyorum.

[LackaJudgment]

I learn so much watching this level of skill. So many times through the match I blurted out “Well why doesn’t he—oh…”

[lefty]

Nordibek heard Magnus talk about Alireza being his only opponent for the world championship classical and said Hold My Beer! Well done youngster and keep it up. Impressive performance

[khann]

He has insane defensive skills. A true technician, just like Kramnik

[victorgarciarocha]

Imagine beating Aronian, Caruana, Nepo, Carlsen and many others in the same tournament. Damn.

[JasurAbdurauf]

This boy is from Uzbekistan. From Central Asia
Good luck boy. We're proud of you.

[ilyastoleubayev]

Congrats from Kazakhstan, brothers! We are happy with all Uzbek people! Nodirbek, kop zhasa!!! 🇰🇿🇺🇿🇰🇿🇺🇿🇰🇿🇺🇿
