Carlsen-Anand: We have a winner!
And then the match came to a sudden end! In game 11 Vishy, making use of the Berlin defense once again, confidently outplayed his opponent. It was, however, not to be. Making an overoptimistic exchange sacrifice Anand saw his advantage disappear and even worse - suddenly found himself with his back against the wall. How could this happen? Watch the opinion of IM Robert Ris and GM Erwin l'Ami on the final game of the match!
Final score:
Carlsen - Anand 6,5 - 4,5
