Typical middlegame themes include
- Good knight vs bad bishop, arranging pawns to compliment one's own bishop
- Knight regrouping(..Nb8-c6-d4)
- Correct exchanging(..BxNd5)
- Exchange sacrifice breakthrough
- Attak on the king

After this leisurely retreat black takes over on the dark squares.[Yip][18.Rad1= [Yip]]
Starting to battle for the central dark squares.[Yip]
Heading to d4 eventually.[Yip]
Now white will suffer on the dark squares.[Yip] [24.fxe6!? Keeps the game close.[Yip] 24...Nd4 (24...Re8 25.e5 Nxe5 26.Nxe5 dxe5 27.Bd5= [Yip]) 25.Qd2 Nxe6 26.Ne3 Ra8 27.Rc3 a5 28.Rd3 Ng5 29.Rd1 Nf7= [Yip]]
Black must take defensive measures against the threatened g5 break.[Yip]
30.Rb2 Kf8 A nice defensive king walk in light of the threatened g5 break.[Yip]
Now the minor piece battle is won for black as the good N easily dominates the bad B.[Yip]
Full attention is turned to the queenside. Black must open lines as the well placed Nd4 cannot win the game without additional entry points into white's position.[Yip]
White goes over to a completely passive defence and now the search is on for black for a way to break into white's position.[Yip]
Finally a way to infiltrate appears.[Yip]
The knight is not inferior to any rook on the secure d4 outpost.[Yip]
Guarding the a-pawn allows black to infiltrate on the c-file.[Yip] [53.Qd2 Is a tougher defence.[Yip] 53...Qc8 54.Re1 Qc5 55.Kg2 Rxa4 56.Rc1 (56.Re3 Rc4³ [Yip]) 56...Rc4 57.Rxc4 Qxc4 58.g5! White has to try an open up the kingside for counterplay.[Yip] 58...hxg5 59.h6 gxh6 60.Qxa5= The game remains competitive.[Yip]]
[56...Nf3! Going to the kingside is stronger.[Yip] 57.Rf2 Nh4+ 58.Kh2 Qd3–+ [Yip]]
