Only one of the four games in the Germany vs England match — the clash of co-leaders — lasted more than 32 moves, with Alexander Donchenko and Luke McShane playing 52 moves each before drawing their game on board 4 (the same result that had been seen on the remaining three boards earlier in the day).
Similarly, three rather quick draws were signed in the match facing Romania and Serbia. However, the one longer encounter finished decisively in this one, as Alexey Sarana outplayed Bogdan-Daniel Deac with the white pieces from a tricky position with five pawns, a queen, a knight and a bishop per side.

The Bulgarians lead two teams by a match point: France and Azerbaijan. The Azerbaijani squad bounced back from their loss against Bulgaria by beating England 3-1 — Gunay Mammadzada and Gulnar Mammadova scored full points on boards 1 and 4, respectively.
Still with chances of fighting for first place are Poland and Greece, which stand a match point behind France and Azerbaijan. Greece’s Stravoula Tsolakidou is having a great run on the top board, as she scored four consecutive wins after drawing her first three games to already secure a grandmaster norm!
