Caruana and So win in Round 6 of the Tata Steel Masters - 6

The Tata Steel Masters returned to Wijk aan Zee and saw two decisive games. Fabiano Caruana beat a really struggling D Gukesh who clearly messed something up in the opening. Wesley So was the other winner beating Vincent Keymer after the German looked like he had fought his way back into the game. Leader Nodirbek Abdusattorov didn't get much against Praggnanandhaa. Second place Anish Giri had a promising position against Arjun Erigaisi but had to settle for a draw, in commentary they talked about how Giri is being seconded by Jan Gustafsson. Magnus Carlsen pressed a little against Jorden Van Foreest but he even had to be careful not to lose near the end. In the B-Group Alexander Donchenko joined Mustafa Yilmaz in the lead after beating Eline Roebers. Below is FM Michiel Abeln's on the spot report.
