World Championship Game 2: The Self-Destruction of Ding Liren - ChessBase India

The second game of the FIDE World Championship 2023 was a lopsided game. After a brief spark of 4.h3 which got the chess world talking, soon Ding Liren started making questionable choices. An uncanny exchange of 12.Nxf6+ made it seem like, it is not world no.3 who is playing. By move no.18, the Chinese landed himself in a lost position against Ian Nepomniachtchi. He had no trouble wrapping up things and score his first win at a World Championship after a dozen games. Unlucky for some, number 13 turned out to be the number where Nepo scored his first win. Ding Liren must regroup himself quickly if he wants to etch his name in history.
