Bb4 Re8 and White is back to drawing board, and Bxa5 will leave the problem of the undefended Ra1
Yes, I was thinking Bc5 afterwards, but maybe that's no good.
Ushenina is down to 35 mins. for 26 moves.
Just seen their time, what are they playing at getting so short so early?
Oh, Khalifman is saying that Stefanova may have offered a draw?
What colour is Stefanova?
Wow!

White.
Rxa4 Rxa4 Qxa4 and white looks far more comfortable than in the Ba6 line.
I'm so tempted to look at Houdini, because I just don't understand the free pawn?
White has to have the advantage now, right?
Looks that way, will probably have to accept doubled pawns, but if white castles, black takes on f3, with the passed pawn white looks to me to be the only one who can really win without any bad errors.
And Rc8 looks like a headache for white.
DRAW!
This is why all matches should be Sophia rules, imo.
What about Bb4?
