GCL: Gukesh Beats Alireza But Triveni Continental Kings Stay On Top With Close Win
Triveni Continental Kings: World Champion D Gukesh avenged his loss against Alireza Firouzja in the reverse fixture, but defending champions Triveni Continental Kings did enough to beat PBG Alaskan Knights 10-9 to stay on top of the leaderboard after match day 6, while Mumba Masters kept up the pressure on the leaders with 11-6 win over Ganges Grandmasters in the Global Chess League (GCL) on Friday.
With the third edition of the GCL entering the second leg of the group stage, Triveni Continental Kings had an opportunity to extend their lead over Mumba Masters as they were to play two matches in a day.
But the champions first suffered a reversal against Alpine SG Pipers after their icon player Alireza Firouzja went down against Fabiano Caruana and the team needed a win against Alaskan Knights to keep their nose ahead of Mumba Masters, who had taken the top spot for a brief period after their win over Ganges Grandmasters.
