Dragnev,Valentin vs. Maldonado Mena,German - 4th Menorca Open 2025 1-0
In the 4th Menorca Open 2025 on 2025.04.22, Valentin Dragnev played a move that could be considered questionable with his h5 pawn play. This move allowed German Maldonado Mena to develop his piece for active play. It also meant Maldonado Mena was developing a piece rather than focusing on threatening his opponent directly. Unfortunately, this missed the chance for Valentin Dragnev to reveal an attack on a specific piece. Moreover, it seemed that Dragnev had been too focused on developing his h5 pawn and ignored a more significant threat posed by Maldonado Mena's position. This oversight ultimately led to Maldonado Mena having the opportunity to kick against the piece being developed, which could have potentially changed the course of the game in favor of Dragnev.
