Arjun Erigaisi won the Tata Steel Chess India Rapid 2021. He did so by holding an extremely difficult endgame against Levon Aronian. Sagar had Vishy Anand in the live commentary room. The five-time World Champion along with Tania and Sagar felt that Arjun's position was hopeless. But the youngster from Warangal was looking at things in a deeper light. He found a series of unbelievably accurate moves which helped him to hold Levon and win the tournament. Sagar brings you that critical moment and breaks down the analysis.
And here is the game on an engine-equipped replayer for you to analyse:
