Shocking turnaround in one move | Praggnanandhaa vs Ding Liren | Norway Chess 2024

Ding Liren seems to have played his best chess at the Norway Chess 2024 against Praggnanandhaa. After doing really well in the classical game and agreeing to a draw in a better position, it was now time for an Armageddon for Ding Liren. He had 7 minutes with the black pieces and needed to hold the game to a draw. But then something quite terrible happened. Check out the video to see what transpired - commentary by IM Sagar Shah.

Ding at this point giving every candidate points fairly.

It hurts to see Ding this way. I hope he bounces back.

[Snehagaming]

Pragg patiently and very attentively leading the game 😮
Wow, we all should appreciate his hardwork ✌️

[hammondvoodoo]

I really hope that Ding returns to his form as soon as possible. Right now, he's not even playing at 2700 level, at times even far from it. That game against Magnus where he overlooked a mate in two clearly showed that something's terribly wrong. This game here is no exception.

Feeling bad for ding..just bcoz his innocent face😢

[maheiluwang]

I feel sorry for Ding...this is one Pragg win I am not particularly happy about...I hope and pray Ding is alright

[levhart]

I have a feeling Ding is taking anti depressants which is messing up his concentration!

11:02 that is not shaking of hands, that is touching of hands

Congratulation Pragg ; Love you from Maharastra ❤

[otoshi]

At least he drew the classical, that's already considered a win for him at this point.

[Rajinikanthan-M]

Yes Sagar bhai, Pragg was so little just 2 years ago as well.... Now he's becoming a man... angry young man.... ? ( No, No... just a tall Man, also humble, genuine, Funny Man apart from all the talents... )..

[ShanghaiBJJ]

Kept thinking why the eval bar on the left is not moving!? Only to realize it is the background poster 😂

[DR.YOGI_]

At this point seems like ding lose interest in chess .i hope he got some motivation comeback stronger in following events

[petertimowreef]

I've only been in the chess world for a few months and instead of lamenting how far Ding supposedly has fallen I am just mega impressed this man managed to become world champion.

[kartickmech]

I shocked about thumbnail, ,
It's not about age it's about confidence and determination, , ,

Age is just a number., ,

[StRANGER_opp]

Pragg will prove our India 🇮🇳, that this is a legendary country, whith full of legends ❤

[francois_bahia]

Well, Ding's chess is good enough to hold Magnus and Pragg for very long stretches ... The issue is clearly his concentration. If he fixes that and his confidence, he could eventually come back. Not sure if there's enough time to recover for the World Championship vs. Gukesh though.

Amazing analysis Sagar. I use to watch other channel but since ever I watched your videos I am big fan of your Comentry. Keep it up 🎉

[rahulrao]

[tiegopercival]
