LAST MOMENTS of 8 HOURS Game! Carlsen BEATS Nepo in Game 6 in World Chess Championship 2021

[ryangrouette]

I think what helped Magnus turn the corner and get the win was the botez question. Helping him remember how the knight moves was the key here.

[dopelizrd]

can’t imagine how exhausted they must be

[reidpattis]

I'm proud of Magnus. This is his first win in the World Championship since 2016 against Sergey Karjakin in Game 10.

Appreciate Ian for holding till 136th move..Magnus masterclass💖

[annika]

8 hours... thats incredible. Its insane actually, sometimes I get drained with just the 3 hour classical games...8 hours is unimaginable. Props to them both

[GMThePeople]

There's a man who knows how a knight moves.

[SamSharma]

One of the greatest games I've seen

[gamma]

Crazy how Jovanka predicted Nepos tilt in future WC games 😲

[GMPranav]

I think the most exciting part is that Ian will now try to win more aggressively, and that kind of game is what suits both of them.

[coniccinoc]

Chess24 was magnificent in its coverage today.

Botez: "How the knight moves?"
Magnus in Game 6:

[kudzem]

This game was too short for me, couldn't get enough of it, I wish it lasted for a few hours more

[ballpaul]

Deep respect for Ian. Both played extremely well. Amazing.

[jackcheetham]

1:07 looks like ian heard the question too

[michaelhawkins]

I have watched the best part of every match so far and watched the whole of game 6 and loved it! I didn't even know I liked chess!

[JG-zstr]

Hold your head up high Nepo!! You were part of one of the greatest games in WCC history!!!

[Greatermaxim]

I knew Carlsen's endgame prowess will lead to victory. I have enough confidence in Ian to not say before the entire WC started. Ian might make an epic comeback but I think Magnus has it overall.

[johnrainmcmanus]

Ian had the character to get where he is. No accident. Look for an exciting game 7 with chances for both sides.

[patsk]

Magnus needs to thank Andrea for reminding him how the knight moved, that was clutch

[icarusflying]

When you can back yourself to outmanoeuvre a 2, 782 to win a theoretically drawn position you know you’re on a different level.
Indisputable best end game player of all time and probably to ever live.
