Mikhail Tal played this sharp attacking game against David Bronstein. As you know both players were creative geniuses, whose games were always filled with energetic attacks and mind boggling sacrifices! And when such players face each other one can always expect an uncompromised battle! This game is not an exception! Against Tal’s 1.e2-e4 Bronstein chooses the hypermodern Pirc defense which allows Tal to organize a dangerous attack! Once Bronstein makes a mistake Tal goes for a pieces sacrifice using the fact that Black king is stuck in the center of the board, after which Black’s position collapses quickly!
