Fierro Baquero,Martha L. vs. Lei,Tingjie - FIDE Women World Blitz 2024 1/2-1/2
In the FIDE Women World Blitz 2024 event on December 30, 2024, White player Fierro Baquero made a surprising move, Nb4, which threatens to gain material but seems to ignore the more substantial threat of capturing an important piece. This bold move forces Black player Lei Tingjie to respond, occupying a crucial outpost that could influence the rest of the game. By playing Nb4, White gains a tempo advantage and begins to develop a piece for active play. However, it appears that Fierro Baquero missed the opportunity to seize this winning tempo, as Lei Tingjie will likely try to kick the knight away from this important outpost. Despite this oversight, Nb4 remains an aggressive move that can potentially catch Black off guard.
