Madrid Candidates 5: Magnus Carlsen — 'Be a shark!

Magnus Carlsen joined our live commentary on Round 5 of the 2022 Candidates Tournament in Madrid and spared no-one! He said Ian Nepomniachtchi was “getting back to his true self… playing poor moves quickly!” after an opening disaster against Hikaru Nakamura, but then criticised Nepo for not playing on at the end when he’d survived the crisis. All four games were ultimately drawn, but Caruana-Rapport was a thriller and Ding Liren was a move away from beating Teimour Radjabov.
