🔹19.d5! A typical theme that I have shown you before! It is a very pervasive way of destroying black's defense!
🔹11.b.c3 (White has a slight edge here thanks to open b-file.)
🔹20.Qh4 (Ivanchuk is under attack. His position is an absolute agony with that Queen on h4.)
🔹22...Qxb7? Serious positional blunder! The correct move was 22...Rxb7 23.Rxa5 Rxb2 24.Rxa8 c5!=
🔹27.h4! The "principal of two weaknesses". It is time to create a second weakness on the kingside!
🔹37.Re4! white eliminates the only piece in black camp that could pose any threat to him. The rest is just simple conversion of advantage now. A great technical game by Ding Liren!
🔹8...Rc8? The idea of early c5 does not work! Black has to finish his development or at least a good part of it before going for c5. 8...Ngf6 is the move that makes the most sense! I really do not know what Ivanchuk was after. 9.0-0 a6 10.a4 Rc8 11.d3 Be7 12.e4 0-0 with slight edge for white.
