Very gripping game. 7 hrs 45 mins and 136 moves. It might have helped both if there was a rest day tomorrow, but I think the next one is Monday.

Nepo had to win first imo for him to have any chance. Hi here will no doubt be a shit load of draws unless Nepo gets careless trying to enforce a win and Magnus gets another positive result.
