Belgrade GP: Rapport in final, Andreikin-Giri goes to tiebreaks

Richard Rapport is the first player through to the final of the Belgrade FIDE Grand Prix after stunning Maxime Vachier-Lagrave and watching chess fans by going for the sharpest possible opening with the black pieces in a game he only needed to draw. It seemed an inspired choice as he got an endgame that looked an easy draw, but a few slips and Maxime came incredibly close to the win he needed. Andreikin-Giri also saw an offbeat opening, but the quiet draw that followed means the players return for tiebreaks on Friday.
