Anand shows his win against Wang Hao
'Not much happened', Viswanathan Anand ended his press conference about his win against Chinese grandmaster Wang Hao. For Anand it might have been a smooth win with few things to say about, but for the chess fans it was an impressive demonstration of the power of the bishop pair. Enjoy, as the World Champ explains.
