{Mit dem Sieg in dieser 8. Matchpartie im Semifinale der
FIDE-Weltmeisterschaft geht Short erneut in Führung und gewinnt dann 5:3. Dass
Karpov trotz des Matchverlustes noch in den Wettbewerb zurück kommt und mit
Siegen gegen Timman (1993), Kamsky (1996) und einen gehandicapten Anand (1998)
den Weltmeistertitel der FIDE für weitere 6 Jahre halten kann, gehört zu den
seltsamsten, aber wenig so betrachteten Fügungen des Schachs der 90er Jahre.}
