The Sicilian Defense is by far the most popular opening for Black and the most aggressive response to white’s opening move 1. e4. By striking back in the center Black can achieve a very dynamic, imbalanced position which has statistically fared far better than other opening lines.

This is the opening I usually choose when I'm black. Some different variations.

no. white can take control of the middle, by capturing the black pawn.

Not very good for White...Except that pawn in the middle,nothing is bright.Black has gained full control with a huge pawn,also with the horse backing up.
