At the World Junior Championship in Skien (Norway), July-August 1979, Pasman (Israel) faces Jussupow (USSR).

@UnityChess

The event was won by Yasser Seirawan (USA). Artur Jussupow had been champion in 1977, and runner up to Sergei Dolmatov in 1978.

@UnityChess

The USA beat India and look comfortable in the role of defending champions and favourites, while Russia are struggling only to drop one point today!
