🔸1-0

28...g6? [Eljanov had probably thought that White cannot take the h6–pawn because of trapping the knight, but...]

[28...Qc6 29.Qf3 Kh7 30.h3 a5²]

29.Nxh6+! Kg7 30.Qf3!± [This strong reply was overlooked by Pavel.]

30...Bg5 31.Ng4 f5 32.Ne5‚ Qe4 33.Nd3 d4 34.c4! [White's Knight has blocked the d3–pawn and his queenside pawn majority is ready to be pushed.]
