Look back at Game Four: Defending champion Viswanathan Anand conceded that he came out of a lost position in the fourth game of the World Chess Championship match against Magnus Carlsen of Norway, which ended in a gruelling draw in Chennai on Wednesday. “Something went wrong in the opening. [caption id=“attachment_1231743” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Anand vs Carlsen. PTI[/caption] I made one illogical move after the next and then I missed something with this knight move. And then I was just basically lost,” Anand said at the post-game press conference. Carlsen was pretty happy with the way things went for him: ”I was doing pretty good, and then when I won the pawn I was very optimistic. He kept on finding resources and I was missing some little things. He really fought very well. It’s bit of a pity to have spoiled such a good position but it was a very good fight,” he said.
