[0:02]fed congratulations a huge win uh with the black pieces against the and you really went for it tell us a little bit about the game yeah it was the Sicilian Defense and he went for Bishop B5 check it's very popular nowadays uh but I think opening wise I got a good position um and I went for something more um what to say U aggressive with G5 it just felt good and it worked out because he missed a tactic and I won a pawn but it was not easy after that because he had a lot of counterplay but I think I managed to play reasonably well and converted so I'm happy about that this G5 do you think you would play it in any game or was it also a bit inspired by this situation today it felt like everyone really wanted that win at all costs um I think yeah I would have played uh this move in other situation as well because I didn't see what else to do um so it was also by you know objectively I thought it's the best move what was your game plan going into the game today with the black pieces yeah I was just hoping to get a fight um because with black it's not really easy and I was happy with the opening because it was very double-edged and um I had chances he had chances uh so I got what I was looking for with one round to go you are in The Joint lead with h Hikaru and yesi you guys have all played each other already what are your thoughts going into that final round yeah I haven't really had a lot of time to think about it um but as far as I understand we will all play the people who are half point below us um I don't know the exact pairing and the colors and stuff so I'll see when the pairings come out I'll let this uh sink in for a while and then you know make a plan accordingly um I think I'm going to let you go it's been a busy day are just a final question are you going to change your routine at all tomorrow the last round starts just half an hour earlier so what's the plan yeah it makes sense to tweak it a bit um because the lunch and breakfast timings will be changed so yeah I'll have to start thinking about it right now as well we'll let you go do that thank you so much congratulations again and good luck for tomorrow thank you so much
