Anand's Almost Brilliancy! Anand vs. Sokolov, 1996

Viswanathan Anand has plenty of brilliancies to his credit, but one game that looked likely to be his greatest brilliancy slipped away at the critical moment. Playing Ivan Sokolov, Anand sacrificed a queen with the thrilling 21.Qxg4!! The sacrifice reminds me particularly of the classic game, Nezhmetdinov vs. Chernikov. #chess #ViswanathanAnand #queensacrifice ✔ Subscribe:  https://www.youtube.com/c/bestofchess... ✔ Friend:  https://www.chess.com/member/samcopeland
