64 moves with Black: Abdusattorov beats Martirosyan, and Uzbekistan go into the last round on top

September 26, 2026 · Martirosyan 0–1 Abdusattorov

After 55...gxf4 · Stockfish −2.99 → −3.00

GM Nodirbek Abdusattorov (Uzbekistan, 2762) won with Black in 64 moves, rook and bishop against rook at the end. On the other side of the board: GM Haik M. Martirosyan (Armenia, 2664).

55...gxf4 was the move. Stockfish had Black winning before it (−2.99) and after it (−3.00), and it never swung back. The b-pawn went on to b3, and the black rook took the h-pawn.

Uzbekistan won the match 3½–½ and led with 18 match points, one ahead of India, going into round 11. They won that too and finished first, on 20.

Go back to move 55, see what Stockfish saw in 55...gxf4, then play it on against the engine.
