I agree that Junior did not do mistakes in the bishops ending and when I said
that it did not understand the bishop endgame I meant that it did not understand
that it went to a lost endgame.

The positional advantage of white is that white has pawns at black squares
and white can go with the king to the centre.
black has a weak pawn at f7 and this weak pawn is the reason that the black king
cannot get into play.

These factors are more important than the advantages of black
