📘 16.Qa4!
A dual-purpose move:
1- Preparing the minority attack b4-b5.
2- Defending the d4-pawn in order to play e3-e4 at the right moment.
16...Nd7 17.Nf3 Ndf6 18.b4 a6 19.b5 c×b5 20.N×b5 +/-

📘 There are three reasons why Black's position is undesirable:
1- His knight on h5 is badly placed.
2- Black pieces have no coordination.
3- the weakness of isolated d5-Pawn.
22.Rb1
Svidler Could have won an exchange: 22.Nc8! Re6 23.Ng5 Re8 24.Nb6 +-
22...b5 23.Ne5 =/+

📕 1.Qd4!
The queen is usually a bad blocker, but here it keeps a strong centralized position and Black's pieces cannot disturb it. It is a direct effect of the exchange of dark-squared bishops.

📕 1...d4!
Here the influence of the d2-rook does not really discourage Black from advancing in the center. He is ready for it! All Black's pieces have been brought into play. Black realizes the breakthrough d5-d4, which increases the activity of his pieces. White's king can be the subject of attack.
