Recordando A Un Grande: Mikhail Tal (1936 - 1992) Tercera Parte

♔

Segunda Parte

El Nuevo Tal, en su nueva conquista de la cumbre, superó el primer obstáculo llamado Portisch  y luego el segundo obstáculo llamado Larsen. Perdió al final ante Spassky. Pero ese no fue el fin. En 1968, en el nuevo ciclo de encuentros de candidatos, volvió a arrancar con éxito: en la primera ronda venció a Gligoric, pero entonces la guadaña chocó con la piedra. Mientras Tal era campeón del mundo, Korchnoi a menudo le hacia recordar que su resultado con Tal había sido 7.5:2.5. Korchnoi había ganado cinco partidas y cinco terminaron en tablas. Desde entonces, hasta el comienzo de su match, el resultado cambió hasta llegar a 1:9 con 11 empates. Tal nunca logró resolver el enigma de Korchnoi, el hombre que nunca le aplaudió. En la segunda rueda perdió el match y todas sus tentativas ulteriores de llegar a los ocho elegidos, fracasaron. Pero no perdió el deseo. Cuando le preguntaron quien hubiera ganado en el Match entre el Tal de 1960 y el Fischer de 1972, Tal contestó: "Yo, ahora en 1972, le ganaría como a un niño".
