1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 a6 4. Ba4 Nf6 5. O-O Nxe4 6. d4 b5 7. Bb3 d5 8.
dxe5 Be6 9. c3 {This is the normal move against the Open Variation of the
Spanish Game. Even at the tender age of 14 Tal knew his opening theory well!}
9... Bc5 10. Nbd2 Nxd2 {This knight is making a few too many moves in the
opening.} 11. Qxd2 Na5 12. Bc2 Nc4 13. Qd1 {More knight moves. But this steed
will be chased from the White camp on the next move.} 13... O-O 14. b3 Nb6 15.
Ng5 {The Black kingside has no defenders, and White's forces are trained on
the vulnerable targets surrounding the king.} 15... h6 { 15...g6 creates major
holes at f6, h6 and g7.} 16. Qd3 { A crude but effective threat at h7.} 16...
Re8 {Black makes room to run.} 17. Qh7+ Kf8 18. Nxe6+ Rxe6 {18...fxe6 19.Bg6
Re7 20.Qh8++} 19. b4 {Tal has his eyes on the entire board. The bishop cannot
move to e7 because of Qh8 mate, so this move wins a piece.} 19... Bxb4 20.
cxb4 Rxe5 21. Bxh6 {Black resigned, since 21...gxh6 allows 22.Qh8+ with a fork
on the rook at e5 and the king.} 1-0
1-0
