Olympiad Day 8

The PNG v Bermuda match is something of a tradition at recent Olympiads. In part it is due to the fact that members of both teams socialise together throughout the tournament, and of course, by this stage of the tournament we are both scouring the bottom of the event. In Turin the result was 2.5-1.5 to Bermuda but this time the score was reversed.
Most surprisingly this was achieved without PNG losing a game. Astute readers will instantly realise that this meant that Craig Skehan did not lose. As the other 3 horses of the apocolypse have yet to appear, you can also assume in this case he only drew. But this is Craig's first half point of the Olympiad, so it is cause for some celebration (which we will be doing shortly).
The win for PNG came on the top board where Stuart Fancy went up a pawn against Nick Faulks and nursed it through the double rook ending. The game ended drastically when Nick walked into a mate. In a repeat of yesterday game I reached a position I did not like, got into time trouble, and then pulled off a save with seconds on the clock. Unlike yesterday the game ended in a draw, although Bermuda team captain Nick DeFirmian felt his player may have had reason to play on.
Rupert Jones also had a poor position but seemed to recover, with the game ending in a perpetual repetition. The team is now on 5 match points which probably means a couple of rounds of pain, with hopefully an easy pairing in the final round to get us towards my target score of 7 (3 wins and a draw).
