The double blunder in game 6 of the World Championship Match between Carlsen and Anand left the internet audience in shock.
The critical moment when both players missed a decisive tactical shot is recorded thanks to NRK and the official website.
Mavaddat Javid, who posted the video on YouTube, commented:
“Double blunder in game six: 26.Kd2? Ne5? The way Carlsen writes down his move suggests he realizes his mistake. After Anand missed his opportunity, Carlsen repeatedly lets his head sink onto his arms.”
Comment of GM Evgeny Tomashevsky
When Magnus blundered with Kd2, I was in the playing hall, and wanted to scream NE5!!! It could have changed chess history I guess;-).
