Carlsen, M. – Aronian, L.

2872 2019 · White wins (resignation, time or agreement)

Reigning World Champion Magnus Carlsen meets Levon Aronian again, this time in a Sicilian Najdorf — one of the most complex and combinatively rich openings in all of chess. Aronian, the flamboyant Armenian grandmaster who never shies away from imbalance, is a dangerous opponent in exactly these kinds of sharp positions. A clash between two world-class players in the Najdorf all but guarantees a firework display of tactics and strategic subtlety.
