Comment of the day by Svidler

Precurser Svidler( suppose to be a leading authority on Grunfeld): "If they keep playing Grunfeld in this match, I will continue to have something relevent to speak."

Comment Svidler: "In the beginning, I said black is in truble with this line of Grunfeld and suggested right moves. almost exactly those moves were played, then I said that black has near decisive advantage and again suggested moves were played and now it seems to be draw."

Svidler is a wonderful orator and these comments by him shows the high level of chess in the Game 1 of WCC. It shows that these two contenders are in a league of their own.... I don't care for the outcome but if previous game was any indicator, we are in a treat for rest of the match

True, but they both missed Qh1.
