It was a crazy end to the day with Alireza Firouzja winning his Armageddon game against Levon Aronian on time. Magnus Carlsen had earlier won his Armageddon against Fabiano Caruana. This means that with 3 rounds to go Alireza Firouzja has a 1-point lead over Magnus Carlsen, with Levon Aronian and Fabiano Caruana still in close pursuit.

Magnus after scraping a draw then beating Fabi in Armageddon:
"I thought for sure it was extremely dangerous & the fact I’m holding after all this Ne5, Qc8 stuff is a bit of luck, I would say. Sometimes these things just collapse but fortunately it didn’t today!"

A potentially explosive controversy was avoided here since Levon Aronian was already out of time after 59...Re4, before Alireza Firouzja's 61.Ng3/61.Ng7 jumble.

"I think once you lose on time one game then you understand what is one second [increment]! You should just press the clock. He was not concentrated on the clock, I think!"
