In this video we look at the most iconic queen sacrifice of Magnus Carlsen’s career. This game features Magnus sacrificing the queen on move 8 for unclear compensation in an absolutely absurd position that has simultaneously horrified grandmasters, and left the entire chess world completely speechless!

In the game Anish Giri opens 1.e4 and Magnus Carlsen responds 1…c5 - the Sicilian Defense. From there Anish heads for the Rossolimo Variation, to which Magnus responds with a very fast …Qb6, putting pressure on Anish GIri’s knight and bishop on b5. Anish defends, but just 2 moves later Magnus sacs his queen for 3 pieces in one of the most insane displays of opening preparation (or over-the-board inspiration) that the world has ever seen!

Make sure to watch till the end of the video to see the insane conclusion to this unbelievable game!
