Abdusattorov, Nodirbek – So, W.

2771 2025 · Insufficient material — draw

English Opening, 2025: Abdusattorov (2771) against So (2751), two players refusing to give an inch. After 1.c4 c5 2.g3 the game slides into a middlegame where the queens come off at 24.Qxb6, leaving patient rook-and-bishop work. The engine flags no turning point at all: neither side lets the thread slip, and accuracy lands at 89% for White and 89% for Black. The finish is clean — 58.e7 Rxe7 59.Rxe7 Kxe7, then the last pawns disappear through 65.Kxg4 Kxb6, a drawn position both sides had long accepted. The club-level takeaway: a game without a mistake produces no winner, only a display of control.
