Nurman,Alua vs. Sultanbek,Zeinep - FIDE Women World Blitz 2024 1-0
In the FIDE Women World Blitz 2024 event on December 30, 2024, between Nurman Alua playing with white pieces versus Sultanbek Zeinep playing with black pieces, the move Rxc4 by Black stands out as a significant development in the game.
Rxc4 is an aggressive and somewhat unorthodox move that threatens to gain material advantage. However, it also allows White to potentially counter-attack and take back the piece. By capturing the c-pawn, Black ignores the possibility of sacrificing a rook for a powerful pawn center.
On the other hand, Rxc4 proposes a potential equal trade of pieces, which could help to stabilize the position. Nevertheless, by moving the queen away from the central file, Black misses the chance to reveal an attack on their own piece, leaving it somewhat exposed.
Furthermore, Rxc4 allows White's opponent to kick the captured c-pawn back at them, potentially setting up a stronger counter-attacking opportunity. Meanwhile, Black is passing up the chance to escape a potential attack and protect their piece better.
Overall, the move Rxc4 by Black in this FIDE Women World Blitz 2024 event is notable for its boldness but also for missing several critical opportunities to gain an advantage or avoid vulnerability.
