By resigning to Jan-Krzysztof Duda, Magnus Carlsen signed off on a historic streak of 125 consecutive games played at the highest level without a loss between July 31, 2018 and October 10, 2020.

Firouzja beats Tari and is now leading #NorwayChess with impressive 10 points. Considering the positions of the two remaining games, It may only be Aronian who overruns Firouzja.

Carlsen takes his revenge in the 2nd game with Duda. He beat the Polish GM in 26 moves. #NorwayChess

Magnus Carlsen: "To be honest losing wasn’t that big a deal. 100 games & then the record streak, those were the ones I really cared about, & after that I knew I was going to lose at some point... I was mostly upset about losing in general, not so much the streak"
#NorwayChess

A disaster for Levon Aronian but good news for Fabiano Caruana, who hits back with a win after losing 2 games in a row!
