It took him 43 minutes to decide, but he did indeed go for
16.Ne6! Although it’s easy to see that 16…fxe6 17.Bxe6+ and capturing on d5 is very good for White,
there was mayhem on the board after
16…Qa5!. Both players found almost all
the computer-approved moves as they launched sacrificial attacks on opposite
sides of the board.
It was a true thriller, with Peter Leko – who during the
show admitted he’s never tasted coffee in his life – even more enthusiastic than
usual.
No quick summary can do it justice, so don’t miss in-depth
analysis by Jan Gustafsson.
