Rakotomaharo fails to spot a tactical concept that nets Martinez a full piece!
Rakotomaharo's rook is overloaded, allowing Martinez to capture Rakotomaharo's knight. This position is now completely winning for the Mexican grandmaster!
Martinez outclassed Rakotomaharo in this game, developing dangerous pressure against Rakotomaharo's queenside that quickly led to him making a game-ending mistake.
Theme International Trading loses their lead over Wood Green in the standings, however, putting them at risk of being eliminated before day two!!
Theme International Trading needs to keep up the pace!
Martinez and his team are on schedule to advance in the group stage, but Wood Green is trailing just behind them. Losing against Mother Continent could be costly, as it may just cost them a place in tomorrow's action.
