24. ... Qf5-e6
Full Game Score ... Previous Move ... Next Move
Grandmaster Bisguier's Commentary

If 21. ... Qc5 then White piles up on the f7-square with 22. Qf3 (if 22. ... Bf6 23 Rf5! and the rook on c6 is lost).

Karpov didn't overlook White's next move (he's just choosing the lesser of two evils). (1:33)
