On the other hand it is hard to see how Black can stop White's e-pawn from queening. But Black can help her knight to do some magic and win. Do you have an idea how?

Magnus Carlsen began his second decade of being top on every published rating list with a loss to Levon Aronian, but he hit back immediately to grind out an endgame win in the next game. He took the lead in their semi-final by winning the last game of the day, though not without a scare at the end. In the other semi-final Ding Liren credited playing basketball with an improvement in form that saw him power to victory with a game to spare. Vladislav Artemiev, like Levon Aronian, will have to win on demand on Saturday to force a playoff.
