📘 9...Rad8? (Bh7) 30.R×f6!
The black king has been targeted by the white pieces. Everything is ready for a combination!

📘 26...Ke8!
A good idea from Mamedyarov, in order to transfer his king to the queenside and also defend c7-pawn to release the knight on c6.

📘 52.Re4?? (Kb1=)
Ukrainian Martyn Kravtsiv has made a blunder. Mamedyarov exploits that with the cooperation between rook+knight and pawn.
52...Na2+ 53.Kb1 Rb2+ 54.Ka1 Nc1 --->Nb3# 0-1

📘 33.Rd1
Ding Liren has missed a typical checkmate in three moves. He is a three-time Chinese champion.

📕 25.c5!!
An ugly-looking move, but Kramnik knows what he is doing. The opening of the d-file is a vital facet of his strategy. He is aware that Black is obliged to exchange on e5, so there won't be a weak white pawn on d4; and secondly, he has judged that the black knight will never get the chance to sit in majesty on the d5-square.
25.f4? bxc4 26.Nxc4 (26.bxc4? Bxe5 then Nxc4) Rhd8 and the d4-pawn would be weak.
25.Rh3 is also faced with the same idea.
