This probably is the most exciting tournament for us, Magnus fans, in recent time

In real life and in chess, never walk into a fork.

Wei yi proved he's not a failure or sh** people called him

Yeahhhhhhh !!!

[@stagna1959]

and commentators did not see the fork before Carlsen made the move .
Nice ending of the game where even mediocre level chess fan can relate with Wei. Pretty sure every chessplayer in the world fell into that knight fork trap, but it does not happen very often on super-GM level .
