...aaaand big upset already in the first round with Denmark (20th seed) beating Azerbaijan! Radjabov, Mamedov and Abasov all went into quick draws (maybe thinking that Mamedyarov was about to win). But Mamedyarov misplayed his attack and went on to lose vs. Mads Andersen.

MODERATORS
Let's see if Offerspill can repeat their great result from earlier this year
There's no Offerspill here. This championship only features national federations, so Carlsen is playing for the Norwegian team together with other Norwegian players. And they're very unlikely to win after one draw and one loss in the first two rounds.
Aha, I see. They would have to bring out Hammer and Agdestein for an ever stronger team. Allthough Tari and Elham(?) are very strong
