In the game between Alireza Firouzja and Gukesh D at the Grand Chess Tour: SuperUnited Croatia Rapid & Blitz 2024 on July 10, 2024, black played the move Qa6. This move fails to exploit a critical opportunity to create threats. It overlooks a superior chance to threaten white's position and doesn't capitalize on revealing an attack on an opponent's piece. Furthermore, Qa6 misses a significant chance to seize a tempo advantage and doesn't develop a piece for active play, instead opting for a defensive stance.
