After two defeats Ding Liren was facing Fabiano Caruana in a must-win game. Straight from the opening the American decided to play rare and sharp line.

Caruana continued playing fast, while the Chinese GM had to burn lots of time while making many difficult decisions.Caruana's play involved the sacrifice of two pawns, Ding was fighting the world number-two player, his preparation and the clock.

By move 14 he was an hour down, and he had 16 minutes left after his 16th move."He played so quickly. I was down more than one hour after the opening. I don't know where he went wrong but it seems his compensation is very big," said Ding about the opening phase.

Only when he could play his queen to g3, Ding was sure he was much better. That also helped his time situation; he could keep enough control to reach move 40 comfortably.Although Caruana played on for a while, trying to find some last tricks while getting to terms with the fact that his fine piece of preparation gave him nothing, the result was certain.
