The Czech Grandmaster David Navara commented on the development of the second game against Alexander Grischuk which was drawn. The winner of this match will be defined in the tie breaks.

— You were so close to a victory today, what did not you manage?

Yes, indeed, if I was not in a hurry wit my move 49.Ke5, I could have taken one more pawn. At the decisive moment I was in a hurry and blundered my opponent’s response.

— What do you think, Grischuk was lucky or the result is objective? — I will repeat once again, I was playing very quickly. This was my big mistake. That is why the result is absolutely objective.

— How will you get prepared for tomorrow’s tie breaks? Do you have secrets?

Even if I have some secrets I will not open them! But tomorrow I will be ready for a fight. At the same time I always realize that I can lose.
