Do I have a choice left? :-)

Frankly I did not believe Junior could do so well. 4.5 points out of 9
games against the world top is quite something and it makes me a bit
jealous too!

As for the games: it is hard for me to give a judgement. Junior and Rebel
are two different animals regarding playing style. Some moves I might
dislike could be good after all and vice versa.

In the end all what counts is the result and that was good.
