FIDE World Cup 6.2: It's Carlsen-Duda in the semis!

Magnus Carlsen will play Jan-Krzysztof Duda in the FIDE World Cup semifinals after the Polish no. 1 said he played “probably the game of my lifetime” to beat Vidit while Magnus eased past Etienne Bacrot, who offered a draw too late. Sergey Karjakin won a sparkling attacking game to come back on demand yet again, this time against Sam Shankland. It seemed we’d have another tiebreak until Amin Tabatabaei blundered on move 77, with Vladimir Fedoseev fist-pumping at the blunder before executing the winning moves.
