The judge suspected that this result was contractual in nature. Therefore, both chess players did not receive points for this game.
– In my eyes, both players bear responsibility. I believe they agreed in advance on the outcome of the match. My opinion is based on the shots they played,” head referee Ivan Syrova said in a statement.
