World Chess Championship: Anand, Carlsen draw 10th game

Chennai: Overcoming some anxious moments, Norwegian world chess champion Magnus Carlsen Friday played out the 10th game of the world chess title match to a 32-move draw against Indian challenger Viswanathan Anand in Russia.

At the end of this round, Carlsen continued his one-point lead with 5.5 points, to Anand's 4.5 in the 12-round match.

Carlsen is just a point - a win or two draws - away from retaining the title which he had effortlessly wrested from Anand last year.

The 11th round will be played Sunday with the players resting Saturday.
