Athletistic/ Others. Today, June 19, Russian Grandmaster Ian Nepomniashchi drew with Azerbaijani Grandmaster Teymur Radjabov in the third round of the Candidates Tournament. Nepomniachtchi is in first place with two points. Russian grandmaster Sergei Smagin spoke about it.
– After the opening, Radjabov decided not to do anything active. It is a very famous position that has been played many, many times. The game entered an endgame immediately after opening. After yesterday’s loss, Radjabov decided to draw and leave an unsuccessful segment behind. As for Jan, he had some bad times yesterday, but Caruana forgave him. He wasn’t aggressive either. From the point of view of the tournament situation for Jan, everything is going well. He had no reason to take risks,” Gazeta.ru quoted Smagin as saying.
