Ljubo leads the game into the waters of a quiet and safe variation of the Gruenfeld defence.} 5. Nf3 {Such a simple move took Gary eight minutes. What was there to think about?

All Black´s hopes of equalizing completely are connected with the moves e6-e5 and c6-c5. Because the c- and d-file will then be opened, it would be best to place the rooks on c1 and d1, and only then think about e3-e4.} Re8 11. e4 $2 {A thoughtless decision and allowing Black to free his position without the obliging e6-e5.} ({It was necessary to play either} 11.

Probably the world champion now made his best move in this game which took an unfortunate turn for him: he offered a draw. Ljubojevic accepted without any thoughts: it is customary to respect a champion.} 1/2-1/2
