Carlsen-Nepo 9: Nepo crashes as Magnus closes on 5th title

Magnus Carlsen now has a 6:3 lead with just five games of the World Chess Championship to go after Ian Nepomniachtchi collapsed in Game 9. A tense, fighting game was suddenly over when Ian blundered a piece in one move, leaving no hope of avoiding a 3rd loss in four games. "Is he nuts, that is insane!" said Anish Giri, who had been showing the possible blunder when it appeared on the board. Ian now needs to win three of the next five games against a player who has lost only two classical games in matches over the course of his eight years as World Champion.
