Viswanathan Anand has achieved a partial success in Sochi: he will be White in the 5th game with a level match score (one victory, one defeat, two draws) and much more confidence than last year in Chennai, where he lost the 5th and 6th games.
In game four, Carlsen found himself in a new situation. He had to recover from a loss as the World Champion. He pressed for five hours, looking for an error which did not occur.
“I thought I played terribly, but it was a draw so that's OK”, said Carlsen after the long fight. Probably no chess amateur in the world thinks the Norwegian played “terribly” that game. Unless you are a genius, like him, what you will see are some inaccuracies here and there, but nothing serious. Later on, he insisted: “My last two games have been pretty bad so I have to improve.”
