During the third round of the World Chess Olympiad
2014, in Norway, in the confrontation between Canada against Angola, the little
11-year old Luzia Pires (photo), who represents the African country, defeated
in just 8 moves the Canadian International Master Nava Starr.
Nava Starr has 65 years and she is one of the top
female chess players in Canada. She is an eight-time Canadian Ladies' champion,
and she has represented Canada 12 times in chess Olympiads, and six times in
World Championships.
The Canada-Angola match was 3 wins by 1, in favor of Canada.
Let's see what happened in that game:
