  Spokesperson: Dear medial friend. Welcome to today's press conference. The competition result is Lead VS Jakovenko draw, Carlsen VS Radjabov Carlsen wins Topalov VS Wang Yue draw. It is our great honor to invite Wang Yue and Carlsen to come here.

  Carlsen : Today's game did not last long, but I find it very exciting.  I think we played very sharply , but also involves a lot of ending theory. In the end I was lack of a pawn , it is better for me to draw with him.

  Wang Yue : We did not do a good preparation and attacked by my opponents , but I thought I dealt with the position well .It took me some time in the middle period ,but I was satisfied with my performance . However , my opponent handled it well and accepted a double- Bishop defense scarifying a pawn .Although I thought it is dangerous for him to use change ,he use the best way to deal with it ,expanding his advantage . So I think we both played very well His defense is excellent and played solidly. Thank you  

  Spokesperson: Ok thank you.

  Reporter: I would like to ask a question Carlsen. yesterday, youplayed for a fairly long time, so you did not attend the news conference that day . could you talk about the game of chess yesterday ?

  Carlsen:  Yesterday's chess I played very hard, I made a mistake that he moved Rook to C8 after placing Bishop in G5.Not seeing his B3, B4, and B5 , I chosed to save this situation by Sacrificing half a piece , but it did not work, However he did not make full  use of the opportunity to expand his advantage  . Finally , we came to such an ending my Knight in B4 VS his three pawns , which in theory was a draw  .

  Reporter: players in such a game certainly have their support such as an assistant or a coach. I have a question for Wang Yue and Carlsen . what do you think about your assistantfor your help?

  Wang Yue: Assistant for this competition is certainly very critical.  Even though sometimes they do not work , for spot selection they  do help a lot and you have more choices. It is impossible to do good preparation for each board .However, with their help , you have more confidence and supports .
Carlsen: this time I really does not bring assistants here, I think  think there's no secret .They aid me mainly through Internet .  Kasparov  has been training me and giving me some comments and advices

  Spokesman: Thank you very much .If you have questions ,  please raise your hands.you will play game tommorrow , could you say something about tommorrow’s competition

  Carlsen: It is not proper to say it in the press conference.

  Wang Yue:I just want to say It must be fierce tommorrow . I have no idea the chess position . Thank you .

  Spokesman: Thank you ,that is the end of the press conference .
