Chess WC: Magnus Carlsen vs Praggnanandhaa Game 2 ends in draw, final heads to tiebreaker

The second game of the Chess World Cup final between Magnus Carlsen and R Praggnanandhaa ended in a draw. Following their draw in the first game, this was supposed to decide the winner of the Chess World Cup. The winner will be now decided via a tiebreaker on Wednesday.

Both players lost their knights early in the game as Carlsen seemed to be a bit defensive as he was battling food poisoning. The reigning world number one will be pitted against the Indian teenager in two more rapid games on Wednesday.
