Annotated by tag1153 (1700): Wilhelm Steinitz was the the first officially recognized World Champion. In this game, he conducts a brilliant queen sacrifice which leads to victory. It is the one of the best I have ever seen. While the concept of a queen sacrifice is not entirely foreign to most players, doing it in the manner that follows is simply beyond me. White's position looks so strong and inpenetrable, but Steinitz… |

Annotated by guy04 (1200): Partie en mode coaching. Peu de choses à dire jusqu'ici. Relativement bien joué des deux côtés. Les deux côtés ont des pions faibles, mais celui des blancs en b4 l'est particulièrement parce qu'il est sur une colonne ouverte, ce qui constitue une faiblesse plus permanente.
