Game 11 - Carlsen wins it all!
Hosting the World Championship match are the United Arab Emirates. Magnus Carlsen and Ian Nepomniachtchi are playing in Dubai, where the match is part of the Expo 2020.
The contest is a best-of-14 match, with rapid and blitz tiebreaks if necessary. This was increased from best-of-12 (in place for every world championship match since 2006), after all twelve regular games were drawn in the previous match in 2018.
The prize fund is 2 million Euros, split 60% vs 40% between winner and loser. If the match is tied after fourteen classical games, the prize fund will be split 55% vs 45% in favour of the tiebreak winner.

IM Andrew Martin complements his Evans Gambit course with a simple and attacking repertoire against all of blacks sidelines after 1.e4 e5.
