We should be able to see a long and complex positional battle now.
White seems to be ignoring a threat to his attacked pawn in the bishop's flank, but it is quite common in these kinds of setps. By capturing the free pawn, Black will get into trouble in the long diagonal of White's 'Catalan' bishop.
The white knight now aims for the dark squares on the queenside. having completed his development, White has a mild initiative in the position here.
With his last undeveloped minor piece too out of the barracks, Black can confidently look forward to the middlegame now. It's even stevens here. We can even say that Black has the psychological advantage of having equalized the game!
Black looks like giving up his bishop in the white rook's path, but it is only a pseudo-sacrifice. He is bound to get back the white knight on the bishop's flank soon.
After a flurry of exchanges, the position has stabilized into complete equality. But, true to his style, we can expect Abdusattorov to start trying the endgame here, to prove the superiority of his bishop over the opponent's knight.
Typical of an endgame, White is trying to provoke weaknesses on the kingside. But, in the process, he is weakening his king too!
With the exchange of queens, the game becomes even more dry: neither side is in a position to play for any advantage unless helped kindly by their opponents!
White provokes an exchange, even at the cost of creating an isolated pawn for himself. He probably wishes to create play against the traditional weakness for Black in such positions: the bishop pawn on the second rank.
Though White has created a passed pawn, Abdusattorov might be able to hunt the white king now, with his rook and knight. Suddenly, the game springs to life!
Fedoseev is worried for his king's safety, and rushes his rook to the kingside for defense. In the process, he doesn't mind sacrificing his passed pawn too
With the exchange of rooks, the game seems to tilt in Black's favour, but White still has good drawing chances.
Though Black has captured one of the pawns, the resultant endgame should still be drawn. White has to keep both his king and the bishop protecting the surviving white pawn. But it is easier said than done!
Though the position is objectively drawn, it is an uphill task to achieve the draw in limited time.
A complex fight where Abdusattorov held a slight advantage throughout! Even though the position looked equal for much of the duration, Abdusattorov gained a slight advantage in the endgame. However, realizing his problems, Fedoseev dug in, defending doggedly and preserving the draw in a bishop vs. knight endgame.
