Scientifically it proves nothing but I believe that Fritz is better based on the
results.

I guess that the Junior team made better opening preperation(I guess that Junior
trained a lot against Deep Fritz before the match in order to choose positions
that Deep Fritz does not understand).

It worked perfectly in the first 5 games and Junior was leading 5-0 but later
Deep Fritz learned and the best engine won.

I guess that the Fritz team is bad at opening preperation and this is the reason
that they usually do not get first place in tournaments but they have the best
engine.

It is only speculation and I may be wrong.
