Match Report

Author:  Phil McConnell

Date:  16 Mar 2017

On Board 3, Phil gained a minor piece early on, which was enough to secure a comfortable win.

On Board 2, Ben gained a strong position from a c3 Sicilian, and finally managed to convert the win.

On Board 1, Steve gained the exchange in the middle game, but his opponent's knight became a "monster" and Steve, under considerable time pressure, had to survive a very tricky end game position before prevailing.

On Board 4, Cliff gained a pawn early on, and he increased his advantage to three pawns. Then came that rarest of events - a Cliff Peach attack with two rooks on the sixth rank!!!

So, a very satisfactory 4-0 win, admittedly against a somewhat weakened Teignmouth team.
