This, my friends, is how a post-round interview should go. Props to Alejandro for doing it correctly.
I agree. The interviewer asked great drill down questions to clarify exactly what Magnus was saying and take it from very high-level answers to specific tactical discussions.
But was it a smooth game
@@bullsfan2246 haha it was - and of course Alejandro took the opportunity to say so
hes much better than maurice
Tbh I found him a bit interruptive. Magnus just carried this interview
What an interview. So much discussion about little strategic decisions rather than about game-winning blunders/tactics. Loved everything about this
Unlike "chess speaks for itself" Lmao 😹
@@krithesh2561 I’m grateful that my former professors didn’t default to that explanation. “Calculus speaks for itself”
Maybe Carlsen feels more open to talk about Chess now because he doesn't have to worry about people using what he says against him for the title. A much more relaxed and happy Magnus. :)

This comment speaks for itself
Outstanding post game interview. Rare to see him going in such depth about his games.
Absolutely, I love these kinds of interviews. I just HATE questions like "how did you feel when he blundered?" or "you are now in second place in the standings, what is your strategy going forward?". There is no way to answer these types of questions in an interesting way. Heck, I can answer them myself. "Good" and "play good chess".
Edit: grammar
Nepo was a beast in Candidates, went undefeated and Magnus backhand smacked him to remind him who the real champ is.
Nepo must feel like a loser.
@@avg_user-dd2yb If he must feel like a loser, then how the rest of the field should feel? Lmao
@@avg_user-dd2yb I think he feels like a winner today.
@@avg_user-dd2yb that's a bit too harsh, no? nepo is insanely good at chess, magnus is just on another level.. :x
Then Magnus himself got backhand slapped by Hans Nieman 😂.
I really think Alejandro is one of the best interviewers for a chess post-match I have ever seen. Props to him for that. We want more Alejandro for sure.
This aged well
this comment did not age well
Great questions and great answers. More Alejandro and Magnus content would be much appreciated! They have such interesting conversations. I get the feeling that Magnus actually likes his tough but clear questions.
Alejandro was a second for Fabi in the title match and has been doing top level interviews/coverage for a while now. He knows what he's doing.
They're much better questions than the ones he got from the media contingent in Dubai.
@@sportsjefe Definitely!
I really like Alejandro as an interviewer. Quiet, interested, knowledgable, respectful AND respected. And lets the interviewee speak without interrupting.
Magnus just making a bit more clear why he doesn’t want to play Nepo in another WC match
Nepo has left the chat
I don't think that this needs to be about ego at all. Its a bit of a shame that this has become a thing. Fragile egos do not suit either of them. I get the feeling that losing his WC title to Nepo would be Magnuses worst nightmare.
@@nilsp9426 horrible comment. If it was going to hurt him so much as you say why did magnus give it up then many days after it was concluded Nepo won? He said he already proved himself doesn’t see the point of defending it against the same player again and the format adding the effort of time and practice it takes to prepare for that doesn’t make it worth it
@@edwincollins5847 Wrong, when magnus was in a meeting during candidates, he was there to say he was quitting the title. Noy saying anything about changes, those were some of the people there who where porpusing some changes while magnus just wanted to say hes quitting chess world champion title. Thats like not having a life preparing for that event. He has a life, maybe he thinks is enough for him and just wants another different goal that is to reach 2900. None know magnus thoughts so here to say stuff just to be saying is dumb
@@nilsp9426 you're being delusional
It’s what Magnus said in the interview with Lex Fridman: he has a better understanding of the game. His evaluation is just better than the rest.
This Magnus guy seems to be a strong chess player, hopefully he does not withdraw from the tourn-
yeaa this is the best interview i've seen so far
i don't have board memorization and very bad notations understanding (self taught, mainly yt videos for theories, and somehow i'm 1950 on lichess lol)
also the host is flexible with his question, waiting enough time before asking another question, clearly understand the game rather than using pre-made questions
This is a great post-game interview! More like this
very nice interview. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
"This guy said he lost his motivation yet most of the GM's roasted by him"
he didn't lose his motivation for chess, just the WC. He has a near impossible (his words not mine) 2900 motivation which keeps him going..
the GOAT ❤
Nepo is probably the 2nd best player in the world and its evident from his performance in the candidates. Only magnus can get away by saying that the 2nd best player's moves were "poor".
Great interview.
This guy knows how to interview!
Wow, good interview.
The problem isnt nepo or the other players. It's just that Magnus understanding of chess is way superior than the other players, even compared to Ian who is a completely beast
This guy is an extra terrestrial
The GIGACHAD Magnus Carlsen at his best
Where is this played? Otb?
Magnus Carlson is a beast!
Chess board should have occupied more screen. Difficult to see on mobile.
intelligence is always obvious....and welcome.....in these interviews......and just because it is chess doesn't mean you should take it for granted...
Feel really sorry for Magnus that he had to deal with scumbags in St.Louis
More Alejandro!
Is this trio the greatest commentary team of all time?
What's this sound :D 2.52
Why they didnt ask b6
The chess understanding of this guy is out of this world. He saw that the doubled g pawns will become a weakness in the endgame??. Not in my wildest dreams I would imagine that.
Exactly. Doubled *g* pawns, in THIS position... Mindblowing.
@@raylopez99 usually when the flank pawn gets doubled it is more often than not a better defensive structure if the pawns were doubled on any other file its different, like the worst being doubled on the a and h
@@raylopez99 doubled pawns in general would be a weakness in your structure, and it is a well known fact. If Magnus had to emphasize it, maybe he meant much more than a simple weakness
The thing is Magnus also have double pawn. We know usually double pawn is bad. But somehow Magnus double pawn is an asset while Nepo's double pawn is weakness. This is i think something that can only understood by Magnus with small chances of Karpov understand it too.
🐐🐐🐐
Alejandro is good.
Wait a minute thats lichess interface...
Nepo makes moves fast only to lose faster.
😂😂😂
Nepo to Hans " you merely adopted moving fast to lose quickly. I was born in it. molded by it."
Magnus knows that Alejandro is a Top G
Magnus speaks from the heart
Magnus destroying Nepom. A normal day.
It’s amazing that Magnus can recall every move very easily. He’s a genius. He’s by far the greatest chess player currently.
It’s also very emotional for him, this is a huge moment to Magnus given the rivalry and implications of him abdicating earlier in the year, I’ve found in many cases the more emotionally attached you are to something the more likely you’ll remember it (otherwise you wouldn’t know why you feel that emotion in the first place)
@@leonvalente6389 Well it’s not like in the championship match it was a close game. Magnus dominated Nepo. Once again he dominated again. People don’t realize nepo is a great chess player and Magnus beat him with ease. It’s truly remarkable
@@neffdog564 "People don't realize nepo is a great chess player" -- he's #3 in the world. Of course people realize he's great.
@@Unknown-jt1jo The point I’m making is he’s rated number three in the world and Magnus beats him like he’s a 700 rated chess player. Magnus just destroys him. He did in the world championship match, and he’s doing it again. It doesn’t matter who wins this world championship title, Magnus is clearly the best chest player in the world.
@@neffdog564 and then Hans Niemann makes him look like a 300 rated player..
lol Magnus is getting bored with Nepo. Too bad Ding didn't win the candidates. 😥😥
I'm excited for mags Ali game
I feel like Magnus would have stayed if Ding won the candidates.
@@da96103 probably why Fabi not believing Magnus stop defending his title. Seems he also thought Magnus just bluffing and just want to see which player that still in shape.
Caruana is clearly the best player he's ever faced.
Not bad for a guy who’s priority is fantasy football
So the myth is true, The Madman is a "Mouth-Breather"?!!!
Great interview, and Magnus wasn't holding anything back: "monumentally stupid"
That is Nepo. He is quite the opposite of Magnus. That's why Magnus will reign the chess arena for another 10 more years. That's for sure.
So who is the REAL champion?
Someone show this video to Hans Niemann
I feel as if Magnus was look to just play "chess." Not theory, not prep, totally unique, unadulterated, raw "chess."
Damn Magnus with a hard hitting conclusion "Ian was out of form and could've done better"
Nepo never in shape against Carlsen
I like how Carlsen crush him slowly "Smell the blood dude, be a f****k shark"
Chances are looking higher for ding
This would happen 6 times in a row in the world championship. i understand why magnus decided not play again because for magnus is so easy and boring to beat nepo, i was too annoying when nepo won the candidates i wanted hikaru or Ding to win the candidates.
No it wouldn’t. Are you comparing how prepared he would be for the Sinquefield cup with the WC?
@@heltvolt4403 I have question. How was his preparation in the previous WC? Bro if I'm not mistaken nepo was the easiest opponent for magnus in a WC.
@@heltvolt4403 and it would be the same, if they face each other.
@@franklinucetap7549 The preparation was fine, he mentally collapsed after game 6 but it wasn't a matter of preparation.
@@sergi-13 well so let me tell you something. If they face each other, he would again mentally collapsed.
The best interview ever for strong players like me (2400-2600 online), not just tactic simple and stupid topics.
Congratulations.
maybe Ian is still haunted by what happened in Dubai?
I feel like he isn't able to explain deep concepts we (normal humans) cannot undrestand ..
So many ppl saying Magnus is afraid of playing Nepo . Lolol . Magnus just quieting the haters . 🤫🤫
i never heard anyone saying Magnus afraid of playing Nepo ,,, u just making stories up
@@raylopez99 I didn't see any of it
@@ciuviskpl4837 I have seen people saying it
That is waht we expect from Champs
'Future world champion '😏 Nepo doesn't deserve the title
Alien
Didn't even mention the b6 move.
I definitely miss Maurice during the games.
Thor needs Odin to put him in his place! ;)
If Ian wins the WCC, he'll be wrapped in that wreath but standing in second place in the court of public opinion.
So what? He's better than everyone apart from Magnus. Since Magnus has refused to play, you can't expect him to not take the title whole-heartedly just because of public opinion that he couldn't care less about.
@@ChessAndNotCheckers Pretty silly to say he "couldn't care less". To be world champion without actually knowing if you are the best? Come on.
@@JSSTyger No, he couldn't care less. He doesn't care about what the Carlsen fanboys think. He's currently the second best classical player itw (not by ranking but he'll probably get there since he is third). Not his fault that the world number 1 doesn't want to play. Therefore, that makes him the best player when it comes to the WCC and the Candidates tournament.
@@JSSTyger Nepo isn't going to care about all of this, the same way Karpov didn't care in '93
@@ChessAndNotCheckers Are you inside Nepo's head?
Nepo playing too quickly?! So out of character for him.
Seems only the younger generation has a chance of beating Carlsen in classic. Nodirbek, Pragg, Gukesh and Arjun may stand a chance. We shall see.
And Hans
If Ian wins the WCC, he'll be wrapped in that wreath standing in second place in the court of public opinion.
Ding is not gonna loose to nepo
@@madarauchiha-iy8em no, but he'll definitely lose to nepo. :)
Not defending the world championship is stupid especially if your opponent makes so many mistakes like Nepo.
He wouldn’t do it again second time around. He played very well and top notch leading to his first lost in game 6
It's empathic. He don't want to humilliate his opponent a second time.
He lost motivation.
it's not even about nepo.. it's about magnus, being bored of preparing months for the wcc.. he had the thought of it for quite some times he said..
Nepo went ubeaten through the entire candidates against the world elite, only Magnus sees and punishes his mistakes. And if Magnus doesn't want to play matches anymore why should he? Everyone still knows he is the best by a mile. Whoever wins will between ding and nepo will be world champion in name only.
magnus sounds more like an american this time. idk
If Nepo lost, it means his opponent was cheating. Only Magnus wins legit.
Magnus looks like he needs to visit a barber.
And Ian is playing for the world championship while Magnus isn't. Seems....wierd.
Nepom never will be WCC, even if he defeat Liren.
Of course he will, that's how the title works. It just won't mean much when he is getting crushed by magnus regularly!
please don't use the engine. its takes fun out of analysis. No one plays like computer.
magnus showed in this game that he almost plays like one
When you have the World Champion on your show ... don't keep interrupting and talking over him.
