A hard-fought match, with plenty of close battles. There was much fighting-spirit in evidence from Wallasey, which made the match score closer than it might have been. We had Andrej make his Wirral debut, but despite Andrej's searching attack, Dave's defence stood firm for the draw. Luke's positional acumen saw him convert a fairly small advantage into a winning attack. Ben looked like he was winning at some point, but his opponent found surprising resources which turned the game around in his favour. Even more dramatic was the draw on Sanjoy's board, as his opponent fought back to draw after being two pieces down. The match hinged on my board, and eventually a very tense central struggle resolved in my favour, and this tipped the match for us.
