Oct-14-20  NBZ: Caruana missed the draw with 39. Rxg7+! Qxg7 40. Qxe6+ Qf7 41. Ne7+ Kf8 42. Qxf7 Kxf7 43. Nxd5 d2 44. Nc3 Be2 and here, although Black wins a piece, White will be able to force Black to exchange the f-pawn leading to a drawn ending (since the Black bishop does not control the a1 square).
Oct-14-20  NBZ: Having said that the final position was drawn as well, as there were mistakes made by both players in the time scramble. Quite an interesting game though.

  louispaulsen88888888: It says Armageddon up top. I think that means this is a blitz game. 5 minutes or something. Black has draw odds.
