Yang Nepomniachtchi defeated Ding Liren in the seventh game with white pieces and again led in the match for the world chess crown in Astana. The Russian frankly failed the sixth game, in which he played with black pieces.
The match began to resemble cowboy shootouts. I don't know how long they will last, but it can't last forever, and I think someone will start losing everything, says grandmaster Sergey Shipov. "The audience likes it, they get emotions from it. Yan is not yet using time competently enough," he adds.
