On more concrete terms, what could be the great idea behind the last move? Shouldn't the knight (after f2-f4) go to f3, controlling the important central d4- and e5-squares? Actually, it would be of little use to put pressure on such well defended squares, so it is a good idea to be heading for the only weakness in Black's setup, the d5-square.

{The tournament in general, but for Magnus especially had a very quiet start with Topalov's win over Navara being the only deceisive game. The pairings gave Magnus 3 Blacks vs. the Azeri players not leaving much scope for creativity, however in round 5 things were about to change:} 1. e4 {Quintiliano,R} c5 {Radek stays loyal to his compratiot inviting his favourite Najdorf variation.} 2. Nc3 d6 {Najdorf players have to use this move order as e.g.} (2... Nc6 {can be met by} 3. Nf3 $1 {intending 4.d4.}) 3. d4 cxd4 4. Qxd4 {A nice and fitting touch, as this move order vs. the Sicilian was favoured by Vugar Gashimov.} Nc6 5. Qd2 $5 {Magnus unleashes a rare and original concept, completely novel at top level. During Wijk Aan Zee 2017 I received an email from Greek IM Ioannis Simeonidis suggesting this setup as an interesting anti-Najdorf concept and offered it to Magnus to test his concept! At first it reminded me of Greek hubris. After all how likely is it that you can come up with a meaningful and new setup at move 5 in one of the most tested openings historically in chess? GM, Khenkin, the commentator at the event formulated it with classic Soviet iron chess logic: "Chess-wisdom suggests only moving each piece once in the opening, especially the queen, however the World Champion seem to have his own rules". First sight however is deceptive: White has an interesting concept in mind, and very similarly to Fischer-Random chess the players now have to adapt to problems completely untested previously in practice.} Nf6 {Logical and common-sense, but Ofitserian took a much more concrete approach when facing Paravyan in the Russian Junior championship 4 days later harassing the white queen with} (5... g6 6. b3 Bh6 $5 {White however did not budge and went} 7. f4 Nf6 8. Bb2 e5 {Quintiliano,R: '?!'} (8... O-O $142 {Quintiliano,R} 9. O-O-O a5 10. Bb5 Qb6 $132) 9. g3 O-O 10. O-O-O {and won a complex fight. This is what fascinates the most with Simeonidis variation, that an oasis of creativity existed in territory believed to have been long mapped out.}) 6. b3 e6 {On the same day in the Budapest Spring Open but 3 hours later due to the time difference, Kotronias faced} (6... g6 {but got an excellent position after} 7. Bb2 Bg7 8. O-O-O O-O 9. f3 Qa5 10. Kb1 Be6 11. Nge2 {As in the actual game it's noteworthy that the surprised player acts with typical Sicilian moves, while in the game played 4 days later, Ofitserian most likely influenced by the computer, tried a setup aimed specifically at the possible defects of White's concept.}) 7. Bb2 a6 {Again typical Sicilian style.} ({Quintiliano,R: 'Knowing how the game goes,'} 7... d5 $5 {intending ...b4 was a more concrete approach. Quintiliano,R: 'maybe is a worthy try'} 8. exd5 {Quintiliano,R} exd5 9. O-O-O Be6 10. Nge2 Qa5 {The point is that despite the isolated pawn, Black has open lines and more freedom to develop the pieces} 11. Kb1 Bc5 12. Nf4 O-O-O $13) 8. O-O-O b5 9. f3 {The position reminds one of a Rauzer, however the white bishop being on b2 and the knight on g1 instead of d4! At first this sounds considerably more passive from whites perspective, but the bishop on b2 not only attacks in the long diagonal but also provides additional safety for the white king. While a knight on d4 would just be exchanged now on g1 it can consider various routes of attack.} h5 $6 {Preventing g4 makes perfect sense, but} (9... Be7 10. Kb1 {is the obvious reply, but then after} (10. g4 Nxg4 $1 {is a nice trick as} 11. fxg4 Bg5 {wins the white queen.}) 10... h5 {Black has a slightly improved version of the game.} (10... O-O {Quintiliano,R} 11. g4 Bb7 {with typical and double-edged Sicilian positions, despite there are some differences of normal lines, the b2 being the most clear one, Black should have the usual counterplay ideas.})) 10. Nh3 $1 {Till this move, the general concept was mapped out in preparation, but here the World Champion demonstrates his level, adopting to the specifics of the position excellently. The g5-square very rarely being a relevant square for a white knight in the Scheveningen style Sicilian is of no importance. Like in chess 960 what matters is adapting to the new situation, and the combination of Black's last move weakening the g5-square and White's knight being on g1 prompted this unusual approach.} Be7 11. Ng5 h4 $6 {Again logical and typical, however for this specific position just not very relevant.} 12. f4 Bb7 13. Kb1 Rc8 14. Be2 $1 Qc7 15. Rhe1 $1 {While White's two last moves might appear unimpressive, e2 almost feeling passive, looks are again deceptive. White quietly finishes his development in essence claiming he can improve his position meaningfully before the eventual confrontation, while Black cannot. Black's position is much worse than it looks. Normally ...b4 and ...a5 would create counterplay, exchange sacrifices on c3 being part of the equation, but with the white bishop being on b2 such action by Black would be completely pointless, and ...b4 simply being answered by a white a3. Especially the knight at c6 seems misplaced blocking both the bishop on b7 and the rook on c8. The relevant question would be, why did Black put it there? But who could resist free development harassing the opponent's queen at move 4?} Nh7 16. Nxh7 Rxh7 17. g4 $6 {At the press conference Magnus explained that he saw the indeed crushing 17.d5! but thought his position so dominating that sacrifices were not even neccesary.} (17. Nd5 $1 {Still the knight sacrifice was the best way, as after} exd5 18. exd5 {Black's position is close to hopeless as giving back the piece is positional bankruptcy, but} Nb8 {loses instantly to} 19. Bd3 $1 {with} Rh5 20. Rxe7+ $1 {being the principal tactical point.}) 17... hxg3 18. hxg3 Bf6 19. Bd3 Rh8 20. g4 $6 {A strange coincidence. Magnus' only inaccuracy in the game was g4; unfortunately it was possible to play twice! Unlike move 17 here simplicity was in order, figthing for the open file with} (20. Rh1 $1 {would have given an overwhelming edge.}) 20... Nd4 21. Re3 Kf8 22. Ne2 $1 Nxe2 23. Rxe2 {Despite the exchanges of minor pieces, the difference in king safety still gives White the much more pleasant position.} Bc3 $2 (23... Bxb2 24. Kxb2 Qc5 $1 {was Black's best chance to minimise the damage, but in time pressure Radek finally goes astray.} (24... Rh4 $1 {Quintiliano,R} 25. g5 Qc5 {[%cal Yc5d4]} 26. Kb1 (26. Rh2 Rxh2 27. Qxh2 Ke7 28. Kb1 Qe3 $132) 26... d5 $5 27. exd5 Bxd5 28. Rh2 Rxh2 29. Qxh2 g6 $14 {despite White's position still looking easier, Black is fighting well and has real chances to equalise.})) 24. Bxc3 Qxc3 25. Qe3 Rc5 {Allows a tactical blow, but after} (25... Qc5 26. Qg3 {Black is passive without counterplay while f5 and g5 follow for White with an overwhelming edge.}) 26. e5 $1 dxe5 27. fxe5 Rh1 28. Rxh1 Bxh1 29. Rh2 Rxe5 ({If} 29... Bb7 {then} 30. Rh8+ Ke7 31. Qg5+ {mates.}) 30. Rh8+ $1 Ke7 31. Qa7+ {And with 32.xh1 following next, Black being a piece down resigned. Magnus' shift of pace not only lasted to the upcoming free day's soccer tournament scoring all 6 six goals for the winning team, but also for the remainder of the tournament with crucial wins over first the leader Topalov and then with the black pieces against Anish Giri eventually securing overall victory.} 1-0
