I didn't consider it during the game. Maybe another time. Should be looking at all forcing moves in a tactical position like this.

A lot less interesting than round 1. Would be interesting to see them play the full game to understand the endgame technique etc but the early draw is pretty boring. Understandable but boring.

Feel bad for Ding at the moment but would rather see Gukesh as world champion. Hopefully it is a close match with some decisive games.
