Ding Liren survives scare in Game 1

Ding Liren confessed he wondered if “there was something wrong with my mind” as he came under heavy pressure from Ian Nepomniachtchi in Game 1 of the FIDE World Championship match in Astana, Kazakhstan. Ian sprung an opening surprise, and though Ding reacted well at first, he drifted into trouble. Nepo looked on the brink of a possibly decisive advantage, but then stumbled, with Ding finding all the correct moves in time trouble to make a 49-move draw.
