Wijk 11: Carlsen wins again, catches Kramnik

By master

Vladimir Kramnik was in a bit of trouble with his Petroff against Alexei Shirov, but his defences held. Meanwhile his main rival in this tournament, Magnus Carlsen, kept up the pressure and his opponent Leinier Dominguez cracked in time trouble. With that he caught up with Kramnik on the scoreboard. Carlsen’s trainer Garry Kasparov showed us some lines in a previous game. Illustrated report.
