Carlsen himself was all smiles after the game. – It is absolutely sick, he whispers to news on his way out of the hall. news’s chess expert Atle Grønn really felt that the emotions were pushing through. – I sat in the back room and had tears in my eyes. I didn’t know why, but it is the body that reacts physically to a game of chess. It’s so crazy. It waves back and forth, says Grønn. – At least it’s the blitz chess game of all time on TV. It waves so crazy. There were so many queens. Where do all the queens come from? Grønn believes that they both fought brilliantly. – They play very strategically and interestingly for 30 moves, and then it explodes when Magnus sacrifices. Pila is absolutely correct here. It jumps. There are objective errors. When Magnus is two towers below, it is tempting to give up. You expect him to give up, but he continues and continues, says Grønn. – They create an absolutely wonderful game of chess, but with many mistakes. But that’s what makes chess between humans so much more fun than chess between computers.

It’s quite a game, says news’s chess expert Torstein Bae. – I have never seen anything like this, says Friday’s guest in the news studio, Henrik Fladseth, and then asks if Bae has seen anything similar. – No, we have never seen that, says Bae. – It is sports history that we see on news now, says program manager Ole Rolfsrud. – It is absolutely incredible, but that is the lightning jacket’s unique power. For some fluctuations. We almost get dizzy looking at the arrow through that lot, says Bae. Chess journalist Tarjei Svensen writes the following about the match: – It is the wildest match I have ever seen. Wow! – What a game, Grandmaster Teimur Radjabov writes on Twitter.
