Spain&nbsp;United Kingdom and Germany moved into shared lead with 6 match points after the third round.\n<\/p>\n<p>Russia, who eked out a last gasp victory over Serbia in the pervious round, found the going equally tough&nbsp;toay. Russia only managed three draws in the last three boards against Spain, even as International Master Meshkov Yuri&nbsp;went down in the first board against FM Desanjose Candalija of Spain. The lone win helped Spain move past Russia 2.1 -1.5<\/p>\n<p>International Master Colin Crouch, helped United Kingdom move into the top of table scoring a quick victory in the first board,giving UK a flying start against Poland. UK went on to win the match against Poland with 2.5 &#8211; 1.5 score.<\/p>\n<p>Germany playing in the third table, upset higher seeded Ukraine 3-1 scoring in the bottom two boards, and splitting the points&nbsp;in the first and second boards.<\/p>\n<p>India &#8220;A&#8221; beat Bulgaria 2.5 &#8211; 1.5, as Swapnil Shah and Kishan Gangolli scored crucial wins in the middle boards over&nbsp;Todorov Aleksandar and Patev Petvo respectively. Bulgarians restored parity when International Master Nizam Rasim (ELO 2232)&nbsp;defeated Krishna Udupa in the top board. With a 2-1 lead, and needing a draw to settle the issue, Gujarat lad Darpan Inani faced&nbsp;an uphill task in the fourth board. A two pawn deficit against Kichukov Milko appeared to be too big an ask when the Bulgarian&nbsp;succumbed to Darpan&#8217;s pressure tactics, missed a win and settled for a draw in the fifth hour of play.<\/p>\n<p><strong>By Indian Sports News Network<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignleft size-full wp-image-2972\" src=\"https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/chess_picture.jpg\" alt=\"IBCA World Chess Olympiad: India beat Bulgaria \" width=\"250\" style=\"margin: 6px; float: left;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/chess_picture.jpg 250w, https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/chess_picture-150x94.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/>Chennai<\/strong>: Spain got an unlikely hero in FIDE Master Desnjose Candalija who helped them upset top seed and defending champion Russia<\/p>\n<p>in the third round of TATA 14th IBCA World Chess Olympiad for Blind 2012 at Hotel Le Royal Meridien, Chennai here today.
