Athletistic/ Others. Russian chess player Alexandra Goryachkina reached the World Cup final in Baku. She will face the Bulgarian Nurgul Salimova. Former head of FIDE’s online commission Ilya Gorodetsky shared his expectations for the final.
– Goryachkina is a big favorite in the final, she is much stronger, she has more experience. But the Bulgarian chess player also has an advantage: nothing will definitely put her under pressure, she has already exceeded all expectations. And only victory is expected from Alexandra. Probably, in a fierce tactical struggle, Nurgul can surprise with something, but I think Alexandra is quite capable of imposing her game,” Sport24 Goryachkin quotes.
