This is a dynamic chess game between Nodirbek Abdusattorov and Fabiano Caruana from round 4 of the 2025 Sinquefield Cup. Out of a Queen’s Gambit Declined, Exchange, Abdusattorov chooses queenside castling to invite sharp play. In the ensuing opposite-side castling battle, he missed the only path to equality on move 25, allowing Caruana to calculate a precise escape from the kingside assault.
