A Brilliant Attack By Viswanathan Anand In The Labyrinths Of French Defense
Viswanathan Anand who became India’s first Grandmaster in 1988 became the undisputed World Champion in 2007 and defended his title against Vladimir Kramnik in 2008. His games are played in a dynamic and creative style and sacrifices are something that can be seen often! In this game in a battle against Russian chess Grandmaster Evgeny Bareev, Anand goes for a bishop sacrifice thus weakening opponent’s king-side after which with a daring exchange sacrifice he forces his opponent to resign! An interesting game in the labyrinths of French defense which I hope you will be glad to see!
