Schulze,Lara vs. Ziegenfuss,Larissa - Deutsche Unimeisterschaft 2024 1-0
In the Deutsche Unimeisterschaft 2024 event on November 30, 2024, Lara Schulze played a move that has been analyzed in retrospect as follows: By moving her rook to g5, Lara Schulze threatens to capture material, but instead of exploring other possibilities, she ignores the stronger threat from her opponent's position. This decision also prevents her from revealing an attack on one of her pieces, which would have allowed her to gain a strategic advantage. Furthermore, by making this move, Lara Schulze forces her opponent Larissa Ziegenfuss to respond, gaining a temporary tempo advantage that could be exploited in the future. However, she fails to seize the opportunity to further develop her attack and instead allows Larissa to kick back at her position. Ultimately, the rook on g5 is now well defended, and Lara Schulze missed the chance to provide better protection for an underdefended piece, as well as opportunities to force Larissa's hand or develop her other pieces. Nevertheless, the move does develop the piece for active play in the game.
