📘 20.a3!!
Carlsen severely restricts the knight's movements. It takes terrific defensive intuition to realize that White moves with a pawn when already lagging in development.
20.Bd2 Rab8! 21.Rb3 Bxd2 22.Kxd2 Rxb3 23.axb3 Nb4 The black knight on b4 should compensate him for his damaged pawn structure.
20.h4 Rab8 21.Rxb8 Rxb8 with equal chances.
