Where are this afternoon's games? Can't find anything on chess24, chessbomb or the official site. This is a European championship!

I think they are on tornelo; there was a link higher up to the previous stage; so I assume you can navigate your way through

I looked on Tornelo, can only find yesterday's games.

Finally under way, Adams already winning after 22 moves against a 2648.

On my way there I stumbled on Esipenko-Bacrot, remarkably horrid.

Guildford qualify with a round to spare. A very impressive recovery after the round 2 defeat.

Bit scary that a club with Vachier- Lagraive, Rapport, Bacrot, Shirov, and Naiditsch could finish 6th out of 6 in Guildford's group. I bet their club nights must've been popular pre- Covid.

They were fortunate to qualify from their weekend group, having to rely on a surprise result in another match in the last round allowing them to claim second place. Had they managed to scramble through today in third I was beginning to wonder if their name was on the trophy

TWIC has results and games so far

I've just noticed that today's session has started, and is in fact almost over. In Luke's final game the players got to the increment with all 32 bits still on the board.

While typing that he lost, with it the match.

Round 5 games underway chess24live

First time I've taken a look at this and it doesn't look like an excitement fest in the Guildford match today

Fedoseev - Duda seemed to be fairly excited though
