Game 4
Spanish opening, Anti-Marshall closed system - 94 movements.
Although they were two different games, this fourth game had characteristics similar to the third, again it was a very long game that lasted almost six and a half hours, again Karjakin did not hit with the right plan entering the middle game, so the russian suffered for hours and once again defended himself with great tenacity to get the draw in a much lower position.

In move 19, Karjakin decided to change his spanish bishop for a knight, leaving Carlsen with the pair of bishops and a strong initiative for the rest of the game. But Karjakin demonstrate the great capacity that he has as the aspirant to defend itself and to save his skin in disadvantageous positions. Carlsen sought to enter first by the kingside, then by the queenside, and once again by the kingside, but Karjakin stoically defended his fortress. Draw after another hard battle.
