  perfidious: Does Black really have enough for the pawn after 14....Nf6? Shirov's king is misplaced, but if he gets untangled, the two bishops in this open position will tell.

  saffuna: Shirov: "White also has the advantage after 14…Nf6 15 Bg5! Nc6 16 Qf2! Nxe4 17 Bxd8 Nxf2 18 Bxc7 Nxh1 19 dxc6, when things are not too comfortable for the knight at h1."
