In the fourth round of the 39th Chess Olympiad, Norway's chess wondor Magnus Carlsen lost to Georgian GM Baadur Jobava.
In the diagram Carlsen has just played 28...Rae8 and fell to a rare tactical combination, one that is extremely difficult to see.

29. Rxh7+! The pawn is defended twice by the black king and rook but the problem is there is a knight fork on f6 after 29...Kxh7 30 Rxe8 Rxe8 31. Nf6+.
Carlsen choose 29...Rxh7 but still could not save the game after losing the pawn on f5
