Daniil Dubow received a lot of praise for the following game against Rasmus Svane at the European Team Championships in Batumi 2019. In the rejected women's gambit, Dubow deviated early on from known theoretical paths and involved Svane in a masterful attack on the king, in the course of which the Russian built a tower and a bishop sacrificed . Then he chased the black king, who had castled briefly , across the board in order to checkmate him on a3:

Dubov - Svane
Batumi, October 31, 2019
Queen's Gambit declined , D37
1. c4 e6 2. Nc3 d5 3. d4 Nf6 4. Nf3 Be7 5. Bf4 0–0 6. e3 b6 7. Qc2 Ba6 8. 0–0–0 dxc4 9. Ng5 Nc6 10. a3 g6 11. h4 Bd6 12.g3 De7 13.h5 e5 14.hxg6 hxg6 15. Bg2 exf4 16. Bxc6 fxg3 17.

Dubov had a whole tower less at this point. He could easily have achieved a draw by repeating the position three times (29. Qh3 + Ke8 30. Qh5 +), but he decided to play for victory instead. After 29. Be6 + Svane had one last chance to defend himself. The queen sacrifice 29.… Qxe6 might have saved him, but after 29.… Kc6? With perfect counterplay, White can force a mate in 13 moves. However, White has to play very precisely, since even the slightest deviation would lead to the loss of the game. Dubov found all these moves on the board. His opponent allowed him to crown the game with a checkmate by refraining from giving up in a hopeless position, as is customary among grandmasters.

30. Qf3 +! Kb5 31. Bxc4 + Ka5 32. Qd5 + Bc5 33. b4 + Ka4 34. Qg2! Bxb4 35. Qc6 + Kxa3 36.Bb3! Bd7 37. Qc1 + Kxb3 38. Qc2 + Ka3 39. Qa2 # 1: 0
