Game from 1993 year, Anand-Ftacnik 1-0. Win with black, checkmate in 41 moves with the capture of the queen, and win on move 40. Time to solve: 15 minutes.
I have already written that every chess game, without exception, has a so-called zero point. At this moment, a change in move, concept or continuation can change the result from a loss to a win.
The secret is probably that you have to rise above your opponent's level, or perhaps not so much above their level, but simply play better. This game is a perfect example of this. Anand won, but so what? We show that he didn't have to, and could have lost. Moreover, such games with a reversed result are usually much better in quality and more beautiful than the originals. And only with us.
If you want to see if you can find a winning continuation and beat Anand in Goldchess (we play against an educational computer), you are welcome to try.
