Airthings Masters: Daniil Dubov loses first set to Teimour Radjabov | Chess News

Aronian had a good day against Maxim Vachier-Lagrave CHENNAI: Russian chess sensation Daniil Dubov came crashing back down to earth on Thursday as he fell behind in the Airthings Masters semifinals. After downing World Champion Magnus Carlsen on Wednesday, Dubov lost the first set in his two-day Champions Chess Tour semi against Azerbaijan s Teimour Radjabov. The pair got off to a slow start as Radjabov appeared to take a slow and steady approach to grind 24-year-old Dubov down. Two drawn games were followed by a key game 3 which saw Radjabov finally break down Dubov s defence to go 2-1 up. Then, in a final game thriller, Radjabov held firm to score a win and take the set 3-1. He is now one set away from getting through to his first Champions Chess Tour final.

Published December 30, 2020, 12:55 PM Grandmaster Wesley So lost with the white pieces twice to France’s Maxime Vachier-Lagrave and dropped the first of two four-game quarterfinal matches, 3-1, in the Airthings Masters of the Champions Chess Tour Wednesday.
