If Jeffery Xiong was nervous because he was close to winning the World Junior title when he sat down to play against Paolo Bersamina in round 12 of the World Juniors he did not let it influence his play. With good preparation, a fine positional feeling, a keen tactical eye and good endgame technique Xiong outplayed his opponent and scored a smooth and crucial win:
