In this video, I share a spectacular game between GM Dvirnyy Danyyil (Italy) and GM Alexei Shirov (Spain) from the 2020 FIDE Online Chess Olympiad. The game featured a Slav Defense (what I preferred calling a reverse London Opening) and quickly became sharp in the middle game. Shirov displayed some attacking brilliance that he is famous for and found some incredible moves, including a dazzling queen sacrifice. I hope chess fans will be entertained and inspired by this game! As part of the Gazprom Brilliancy Prize (trophy shown in the thumbnail) I was a selected as a judge out of several other chess streamers and YouTubers to choose their favorite games from the event.
