Magnus Carlsen and Hans Niemann just faced each other for the first time in the Speed Chess Championship since the 2022 Sinquefield Cup cheating scandal. Leading up to the match, Hans had a lot of words to say in his interviews about his "rivalry" with Magnus and how it's not even a question if he would win. Let's just say the match played out very differently.

00:00 - Players' thoughts pre-match
00:45 - Game 1: Magnus goes full throttle in 5+1
02:09 - Game 2: Drawn endgame, but you're playing Magnus
03:01 - Game 3: Drawish endgame, but it's Magnoose
04:29 - Game 4: Magnus sacrifices everything
05:41 - Game 5: Magnus doing Magnesian things
06:30 - Game 6: Sublime bullet attack
08:41 - Final thoughts

Thanks for watching!
