Diagram 13 · Black to move

The pawn on b4 attacks the bishop on c5, so the bishop has to move. Two retreats sit on the same diagonal and both look sensible. Before you take one, work out which square in this position White's pawns can never reach, and what a bishop standing on it would be worth. · Wei Yi vs Sindarov, Candidates, Paphos 2026
