Bigat ng Tirada ang tumapos ng Laban! || GM Nepomniachtchi vs. GM Alekseenko || Candidates Chess 21

The World Chess Championship Candidates resumed in Yekaterinburg 390 days (1 year and 25 days) after being halted following round 7 on 25th March 2020. At that point Ian Nepomniachtchi and Maxime Vachier-Lagrave were a point clear of much of the rest of the field - Nepomniachtchi was sick and had just lost a game - he candidly admitted today he was very much aided by a break. The second half of the event started with round 8 today and after looking for a long time that there would be four draws in fact two games were decisive - the most important of which was Fabiano Caruana's victory over Maxime Vachier-Lagrave which puts him right in contention half a point behind Nepomniachtchi and ahead of MVL on tie-break (their head to head score). Kirill Alekseenko won his first game of the event beating Alexander Grischuk after the latter probably tried a bit too hard to create winning chances for himself.
