My goodness, that was tense. Playing under the pressure of the clock with seconds left was remarkable. Valiant effort by Koneru who never gave and made her opponent work very hard. But full respect to Alexandra for this win!
What is indeed difficult in a B+N mating sequence is to drive the King to the corner with opposite colour of our Bishop. This is what happens at 19:13. Ng6 - key movement. After that, it is just following the same recipe, as you can see Alexandra playing faster and confident.
I played the end of match at one quarter speed, so I could try to follow it. Discovered the sound effects are great, the crowd noise sounds like some science fiction background music!
Bishop knight checkmate is not as difficult as it seems. Because there is a pattern for this and you can practice and be so good at it. The most difficult one is Rook vs Queen checkmate. If the opponent plays accurately, it is very difficult to prove as there is no any 'pattern' for the checkmate.

I agree with you.
I have a profound sense of respect for those who can mate with a knight and a bishop. 🙏
Thank you for respecting me!
Thank you for respecting me as well.
Thank you
Thank you
@@vishalfgm True, that's a harder checkmate...the two knights and opponent's pawn on 6th rank.
@18:55 It is a curious thing to see Alexandra used the deep concentration breathing ala demon slayer.
I want the world champion to show me a bishop and knight mate..😅
Do you happen to have the game played between Murzin and Nepomniachtchi? The kid literally crushed him
Wow the game lasted 20 minutes thnx cb india for uploading
What a marathon and sprint😮
I thought that was amazing, they didn’t even look to be breathing hard! Thank you
Триллер! :)
What I love about blitz games is that blunders have limited impact on the outcome of the game 😂❤
Умничка разматала в пух и прах!!!
Chapeau 👏
Ой, женщины...
Wow👏🏻
she shoud have gone to the dark corner h8, why she gone back to the center of the edge?
Because she was forced.
@@shubhamvibhuti on 19:03 she could moved king f7 with the idea to try to go to the 7th line
