Скачать или смотреть 2020-21 Candidates Tournament Round # 1 | Wang Stuns Ding | Marian Petrov | Chess KLUB

In the game between two Chinese players Wang won his game against Ding Liren and so he was briefly the only leader in the tournament.

It is a big surprise because Ding is the favourite in the event and during the previous candidates did not lose a single game.

He was a bit better during the opening but then decided to trade the queens after which black was fine. "It's just the first round. Winning is good, but it's nothing special," he said.As Wang pointed out afterward, things started to go downhill on move 30 for his compatriot, although time trouble also played a role as Ding missed a final chance for equality on move 40.

Wang said about the topic of time trouble: "Once you like your position and suddenly you miss something in your calculation, in this kind of situation one can very easily spend a lot of time. And also, some players just like to think!"
