Some crushing chess from the Bundesliga
Crushing Chess!
Here are 3 fiery and spectacular games from the German Bundesliga played last weekend. It is good to see that inspiration, creativity and passion are alive and well at the top! Enjoy…
gm Bromberger – gm Cornette Bundesliga 4.2.2017 (0-1)
gm Kollars- gm Movsesian 4.2.2018 Bundesliga (1-0)
gm Naiditsch – gm Hansen, SB Bundesliga 4.2.2018 (1-0)
A super. sharp variation against the 4.Qc2 Nimzo A specialty of the Ukraine school of chess, here the Frenchman blitzes White with pawn and piece sacrifices. A route in 20 moves!
Another route, but this time by White! In a modern theoretical line, Black opens prematurely with d5 and then White pounces and then he never looks back. Resignation must have come as a relief by Black!
Naiditsch is one of the best attacking players in the world, having already crushed Carlsen and Kramnik, amongst many others (including yours truly). Here he dismantles the Spanish Opening.
