The Chinese chess player, who is likened to a chess king, covered his face in a situation where he was "suffocated" by Vietnam's number 1 chess player Le Quang Liem at the end of the game.
World champion Ding Liren had to "scratch his head" when Le Quang Liem pressured him and took the upper hand in the endgame. This was a decisive moment because Le Quang Liem needed to win to help the Vietnamese chess team draw with the Chinese team. Meanwhile, Ding Liren only needed to draw with Quang Liem to bring the overall victory to his team.
At this time, Chinese player Ding Liren seemed to have no way out when Le Quang Liem created a clear advantage.
Ding Liren sighed and put down the chessboard, accepting defeat against Le Quang Liem after 62 moves of intense intellectual competition. Vietnamese chess fans were happy and proud of the performance of player Le Quang Liem and his teammates at the 2024 Olympiad.
Holding China to a 2-2 draw, the Vietnamese chess team ranked second after 6 games and headed to the 7th game against the Iranian team.
