Magnus Carlsen played one of the best attacking games of the year. He faced Giri with black in a Four Knights English which he played with the opposite color just a round ago in his win against Topalov. Obviously a popular variation at top level at the moment. He deviated from the most common opening line for black which might have confused Anish, but the position was still relatively equal out of the opening. What came in the middlegame, though, is from another world.
