Қысқаша мазмұны
Anand takes no risks. Leading 5–2, he plays a solid Nimzo-Indian with white and accepts a draw without pressing. Kramnik has no winning chance; the game ends in a technical draw.
Түсіндірме
A champion's mentality — Anand is in no hurry to close out the match and takes no unnecessary risks.
Kramnik fights hard but the position simplifies naturally and there is nothing to work with against accurate play.
Draw agreed after 44 moves; Anand needs only 1½ more points from 4 games to lift the title.
