Your turn! Can you find the solution of our daily Lichess puzzle? PS: it was played in a bullet game between Magnus Carlsen & Alireza Firouzja! lichess.org/training/daily

@lichess 1. Kc2 Re4 (if anything else: 2. Rd4#) 2. f3! (Rook can't move eg. 2. ... e2 3. fe and 4.Rd4#) 2. ... e2 3. fe e1N+ (only move) 4. Kb2 Nd3+ 5.Kc2 Draw by repetition.

Follow

@Pentaxke I don't see a draw. If 4. Kd2, Black is forced to either move the king and escape, losing the knight, or move the latter and be forced to chase the runaway white pawn in the e column.
