- The commentators, including Fabiano Caruana, were sure that Ding Liren was going to repeat moves. Caruana even wrote off Rg6 as losing for Ding. But Ding won the World Championship with this unbelievable move. Rg6 threw Ian off completely and he never had a chance after that.

How Nepo should have reacted to Rg6
Instead of playing Qf5, h4 works better. Queen on e4 was enough to stop pawn at c5 from going to c4 (attacked by white queen and rook).
Ian: "let me draw this and get the match to blitz"
Ding: "buddy, let's blitz RIGHT NOW"
Nepo’s mind went elsewhere once he assumed it would be a draw, once Ding played the rook Nepo had to bring himself back mentally and that is incredibly difficult to do.
Probably this is same reason why he lost to Magnus. Just remind me one time some reporter asked Magnus question why he keep playing in draw-ish positions ? And this game one of example why, you try some different move to see if your opponent will make mistake or not. Once they make mistake you can took that as your advantage.
Yeah, that was Nepo's problem. He is probably a better chess player, but his temperament is the problem.
You could see he was all happy with himself, until rg6. The look on his face got a lot worse with every move.
@@tannhaeuserx464 i truly believe he was a better player for this match, probably due to his experience with magnus. seeing his reaction at the end is heartbreaking. it also just feels a bit weird that a classical world champion was decided by rapid games.
that being said ding is incredibly deserving and such and im a big fan of him too, they r probably my two favorites in terms of current top chess players.
@@lythd At least, it is not decided by blitz. I also like them both, but Caruana is my fav.
When Nepo looked right then knocked over the pieces, that might be one of the most emotional things I have seen in chess
agreed
@@lane9234did bro reply do his own comment
did bro just agree with himself
@@realtoal😂😂
@@realtoal i made a valid point
the way he looked at the trohpy and grabbed those pieces was heartbreaking
Yes, raw anguish. Chess is cruel.
Yeah, it was hilarious. Like an anime.
The trophy was on the opposite side
@@SonicMegaKing no this is real world
@@SonicMegaKing "like an anime"
That is the cringiest comment I've heard
He may not be the absolute best, he may not even win another title, but for this move alone Ding deserves the championship because that took so much guts
He's the deserving world champion
True...
And people just end up calling him "lucky "
@@Rohannn0007 Not for long, but yeah, for once he is
@@PrakharKumar-zy1bx don't underestimate ding he still has chances holding the wc title against gukesh
@@PrakharKumar-zy1bx fun fact Gukesh was the only top player Ding was able to win against in Wijk aan Zee
Sometimes there are those sparks of romantic chess in Ding's game --he plays courageous moves under difficult situations. He was willing to take risks, and he was rewarded for that.
He is not the strongest chess player ever, but he for sure has the heart of a champion.
I'm glad Ding's risk paid off; especially when Ian had more time left than Ding. You can tell that Ian was not ready for Ding to go in for the win instead of going in for a draw. And ultimately, that risk paid off so well for Ding. Well played.
@@n3h3m 200 iq move
that Rg6 move was just amazing, with that he so deserved to win the championship
I agree.
No. if Ian moved his pawn to h5 h6 instead of his Queen, the game will have different ending. Analyze it.
@@hotlemongingerhoney Of course it would. But it doesn't make Rg6 any less amazing.
@@hotlemongingerhoney "If no one made an inaccurate move, the game will end in a draw"
That is not the point, the point is how Ding managed to figure out that Rg6 is not a losing move and actually has winning chances using the passed pawn
@@hotlemongingerhoney It was a blitz and you are not an AI. LOL
I keep coming back to this match, it is for the emotions, the value this moment holds for the players that chess for me really shines.
yeah exactly , I keep coming back to it as well
same
Ding displayed tenacity here, a trait that a world champion must have.
That was so fun. The comentators did not even know what was happening. The computer kept moving back and forth for white and black. I feel sory for Nepo and happy for Ding.
In motorsport their is saying, 'if you no longer go for a gap that exist, then no longer are a racing driver. Ding kept on playing for the win, that seperated him from nepo in that game. And that's why magnus has dominated world chess for so long, he is known for squeezing wins out of driest of draw positions
Senna
"If you no longer go for a gap that exist, you are no longer a racing driver" - Ayrton Senna, 1960-1994.
Senna
yeah and that citation alone has caused drivers go for tonns of controversial and dangerous moves where drivers go for a gap that's not there and be dicks about it. Very nice. Ding just went for a win because he tried, risked and maybe felt Nepo can blunder, not because he was disrespecting his opponent like Senna usually did.
@@PromixDelPiero can never be a champion in motorsport with that attitude, you can be all gentlemanly and respectful in driving and no one will ever remember your name. You might dislike Senna but you still know his name.
Watching this live was a rollercoaster of emotions
Chess look so calm but in fact some defeats can get totaly brutal. You're playing for multiple days, most games last hours, you're always focused, you've spent months with your team setting up tactics, openings etc... and then... all goes down the drain in a heartbeat.
just like real life
Watching this for the 6th time, still bring a tear of happiness to my face
Rg6 was such a great moment and I am so lucky I got to see it live, that was epic!
No
im just seeing now a month later how different is that?
I saw it a week before it was played so it didn't came as a surprise to me. Still gg though.
Even Hikaru went from total draw, to intense calculations, to holy shit ding is gonna win
And unlike Fabi and the other commentators here, instantly saw c3 and Qd3 as the line that wins
In the words of one of the greatest if not the Greatest chess player of all time, "Self-pinning for immortality"
-Magnus Carlsen
Everybody expecting to settle for a draw is the exact reason Magnus didn't show up.
Stunned into silence. I remember this game vividly and it brings my hairs up thinking about it
Ding after this match was like
"Dammnit i won"
The Ding Chilling Gambit: Play to Win Variation
A brave move that will be enshrined in chess history.
"And this, kids, concludes our history lesson on how Ding became a legend"
This will never get old.
My heart was beating so fast after Rg6
Aaaaand I'm back. I can't stop watching. In sport, in life, everyone says you have to take the chances that come your way. And here it is, for real, by Ding under the utmost pressure.
It maybe that Ding is going to be criticized for not playing enough chess after this, but I for one will always defend him. Just because of this.
Such bravery. Such stones. Bravo Ding. This will always be legendary.
The fact that she announces so confidently that its going to be a draw just makes this so epic.
Everybody was saying it too for a couple of minutes before the start of the video
I like that you single her out for some reason when literally everyone was expecting a draw.
Shut your face. She was by far the most adamant about it. You are the knight in shining armor no one needs.
@@TheAluvisify She was completely smug, acting like it was inevitable to be a draw.
@@edntzyou can see it as being smug, but the reality is that this match would have been a draw if Ian didn’t fumble his queen for no reason, instead he should have just taken the pawn. Literally no one would have expected this outcome.
Ian was planning for a draw
Rg6 burst all of his plan
He didn't think of any plan if the enemy is playing for a win
He could of forced a draw earlier, he also wanted a win which backfires
I just love how the girl shut up after the rook move 😅
1:51 4:51 😅
Ding did the same thing Fischer made against Spassky and, coincidently, not only that game is my all times' favorite but I also have been thinking Ding's style remember Fischer for a long time now: Spectacular. 🤣 And game 6 was another gem as well.
looking back i think Ding deserved this championship more than most people give him credit. At the end of the day he and nepo outplayed everyone else at candidates, and he outplayed nepo in the big one. It's def a winner's move to do something that nobody expected and looks like a big risk
Ding beat 4 people with that move.
Amazing!
I freaking LOVE when announcers get cocky and think they know how a game is going to play out. All these commentators are better at chess than I’ll ever be at anything, but I would never assume the game is over until it is. It shows exactly why Ding is playing for a title and Tania is watching. What a ballsy calculation. Freaking brilliant.
Such a brave move a minute on the clock
I will always remember myself crying in the train watching this live... just magically
Tania was right after all. The blitz was coming up after Rg6. 😂
So happy for Ding man, he did so good
Rg6 summed up how Ding played the whole match, bravely. He still had a draw in that line if black had played the correct more h5, but black was very short of time and so it was a great move that gave him winning chances. Qf5 was the losing move.
I feel happy for them both. Ding has had great success. Nepo has gone through a challenge that gives him the opportunity to come back stronger.
@@DBC00P3R A great strength of chess players is being able to forget past games, tournaments and bad moves, instead focusing on the position on the board, which is true among professionals of other disciplines too. Nepo will be back.
@@DBC00P3R it's not the first time he's lost. Nepo is gonna keep fighting to become the World Champion.
@@J.J.J.J.J.J.J he don't.
For anyone thinking it's over for Nepo, he is already playing again and winning against high calibre players.
He will never come back from 2 lost world championship finals.
I know very little about Ding and yet hes still one of my favorite people in the world. I'm what people describe as an empath and watching Ding play in these games with so much tension and emotion involved I would bet anything he is an empath as well. I guarantee in this moment he's barely even enjoying the fact that he won. He had to sit there and watch Nepo try to handle all the emotions and pain of realizing he wasnt going to win and that 100% greatly effected him. He didn't want to react or do anything that could Nepo feel worse so he just put his head down and covered his face. I love seeing people like Ding do great things. He deserves it
You'll know its a high level analysis when the IM shuts up.
Let's be real, most of the commentators could only look at the evaluation bar and be like ''omg that's a mistake!!!'' or ''it's a draw...''.
All I want is a clean clip of Fabi saying "oh my god" to use as my phone notification sound.
“Rg6 looks more like a losing move” and the foot goes INTO the mouth 😂😂😜
He is the world JUST champion!
😂taniyas accent
This is a perfect example of why Fabi lost WCC. Ding played to win instead of playing not to lose.
Fabi lost to Magnus in tiebreaks after drawing all 12 Classical matches against him so it's not really comparable to Ding defeating Nepo to win the title.
@@shubomb How's it not comparable? They just gave the comparison
@@64MilestotheGallon It's not comparable bcz their opponents Magnus and Nepo aren't on the same level. Magnus is arguably the best player of all time, Nepo is just top-5 player of his generation.
And if you watched Nepo-Ding match you'd know that Ding totally collapsed multiple times during Classical games, it's just that Nepo also followed suit but Magnus won't give you such chances as seen in Carlsen-Nepo World Championship match, after Nepo lost game 6 there was no coming back against Carlsen who wiped the floor with him. So the comparison between Fabi and Ding is deeply flawed to begin with bcz the opponents they faced are on two completely different levels.
Saw this moment live and the goosebumps!
This game proves Magnus' point that the World Championship would be a lot more interesting with shorter time formats
Or just Magnus not playing it 😂 he’s too good
@@DeerjasonExactly
Rg6, one of the most historic move in chess.
dat funny commentary around G6 move will be remembered forever
This was amazing, the calculations are supercool!
Hilarious how Tania confidently rules out Rg6 and predicts a draw only for Ding to play Rg6 and prove her dead wrong.
Maaaaan, it was such a blast watching this live then. Super exciting!
Ding was chilling 😎
Self pinning of immortality
Self pinning FOR immortality.
I feel so bad for both of these players. More so for Ian, however, the way ding hung his head and covered his face. Then walked off shaking his head like he had a bad day at the office sends shivers down my spine. Good luck to both men.
2:03 Ding (plays Rg6): I ain't Anish, y'all.
This moment defines Ding's legacy! What a player, absolutely clutch!
Gukesh vs Ding will be a great matchup
Ding looks like the type of guy who sleeps through class and still manages to get the scholarship.
Watched it live, crazy game.
"Self-pinning for imortality" MC
The first chinese man to become world champion. This game has been around for centuries. That is a huge moment!
Great moment, great match, but really don't want to see these two face off again. Someone stop Nepo!
this will go down in history
A champion sees moves others don't ;)
Hess does an excellent job as anchor. A great commentary team! What a game!
DING THE KING!!!
0:45 Fabi: I am so good at predicting draw in chess games.
(A few moments later)
2:03 Fabi: NANIIIIII ?
Phenomenal
The funest end game I ever did see.
I agree 😊. Just shocking.😊😊😊
this was like when Happy Gilmore said "I'll just beat him now"
Such a great reference
Ding:"I got this. Do you?"
🥶
That grab of the coins is so poetic and sad. This has to be the chess moment of the Decade
I don't know why , but when I hear Taniya's accent ,it hurts
everyone getting ready for blitz while Ding manifesting a memorable win
It takes big chinese balls to make that move and ding has the capacity to do so.
Sometimes... no commentary is best commentary.
Monumental
Even fabi got nervous as a commentator
That was the hardest L I’ve ever seen someone take in chess…brutal
I just love Dings timing here:
"Rook to g6 is a move you don't consider here..."
BOOM - Rook to g6 in the very next second 😂
4:11 wrong move QB5 so he can't move the pawn
That wch will be remembered for this Rg6 move. As Carlsen said, self-pinning for immortality. That's now history of chess.
Commentators just love to read off engine lines. Tania just said, "It's a draw because it's 0.00"
Fabiano Caruana is a better player than both Nepo and Ding.
This is why Ding is world champion and all these guys/girls are watching from home.
Permainan terbaik dalam sejarah pertandingan catur kerana banyak penganalisis tidak menduga pergerakan yang dibuat oleh Ding.
The Chess equivalent of Lillard sending off Paul George and the Thunder
Always good to have a shouty American commentating on a chess match.
The shoutiest person was Tania
You should hear the last 5 mins of the Spanish commentary, absolutely amazing.
This shows why caruana has not become world champion yet. He’s top 3 for sure, but it seems like he doesn’t have that killer instinct to fight for wins. He’s too comfortable going for draws, even in positions where he’s winning.
But it was actually very risky for Ding to play if Ian got the right moves Ding would have been in trouble
He lost 2024 candidates because of that
Humble victory for Ding Liren i really like the drama in this Sport..
There is a reason why he is world champion and the commentators only make comments.
Those who can, do...and those who can't, 'teach'.
Fabiano Caruana is a better player than both of them.
What does that say about Nepo?
How i feel when i lose a rapid @ 1200
How he mustve felt, jesus.
1200 is 🗑️ rating
@@miyamoto900 depends on who you ask, you miss the point of my comment though.
Ding just didn't outplay Ian in this one, he outplayed Fabiano Caruana too
Who said Ding is weak? Who said Ding is not worth a world chess champion?

Women 😂😂
@@subashlimbu7024 well Fabi also said that he would be surprised if rg6 wasn't better for white 🐻❄️
@@subashlimbu7024 that woman is better than you
She called it with some uncertainty. Sorry you didnt understand that
She is the only one who considered it in the entire panel, you clowns.
I think Nepo shock when Ding play Rg6..
This atleast made ding deserve the title
