सारांश
A long Catalan draw. Anand tests Kramnik with the Catalan but Kramnik's defensive technique is excellent when his pride is on the line. A technical game that Kramnik holds without difficulty.
कमेंट्री
Anand does not press recklessly — leading by three points, he plays solid positional chess without taking unnecessary risks.
Kramnik defends calmly: no weaknesses, active pieces, controlled counterplay, and a clear understanding of the drawing resources.
The game is agreed drawn after 55 moves — Kramnik's technique has not deserted him entirely, and he takes some consolation from the result.
