My Chess Game Collection #138. Ruy López Opening: Morphy Defense, Exchange Variation, 4...dxc6
Click and watch the game in GIF file! I am also providing the PGN file. I played with Blacks on 5/22/2020. Whites used Ruy Lopez and wanted to be aggressive. They met with a defense that did not mind sacrificing a Bishop for position and eventually could not do much.
