Bundesliga 2012–13 Rd12-GM Medvegy(HUN)

TWIC 958
GM Medvegy,Z won this game by not attempting to do much except for creating a solid but unbalanced position. White began a bit passively on the queenside and then turned to outright aggression on the kingside.

This game illustrates the following middlegame themes

  • defense against aggressive line opening play
  • consolidation of P+
  • exploiting weak pawns
  • endgame transition for defense and consolidation
Here is the feature game.

White has sacrificed a kingside pawn for the attack and has begun to push on the g-file. What do you recommend for black?
