73. Re6-e4
Full Game Score ... Previous Move ... Next Move
Grandmaster Bisguier's Commentary

Again, 73. Ng4 is met strongly by 73. ... Nd5!

Having made no progress over the past 15 moves, White finally allows an exchange of pawns on the queenside.

Defending the a2-pawn simply tied White down too much.
