Asked to describe the game, he noted that he played the most solid system against the Berlin, "yada, yada, yada, let's go to the doping control." Asked about a statement Fabiano Caruana made in an interview that Carlsen is good at finding openings that are unpleasant for his opponents, Carlsen stated, "Caruana is a very good player and a clever guy; there must be something to what he says." He said that he was not in the mood to think today. He claimed there was not much to think about in the game. He said, "I was just hoping to set some traps, and if not, to shut it down."
Carlsen,Magnus (2870) -- Anand,Viswanathan (2775) [C67]
FWCM 2013 Chennai (8), 19.11.2013
1.e4
Anand thought for nearly five minutes after Carlsen played this move. Many predicted that Anand would meet this move with the Sicilian. In the postgame press conference, Anand stated that he did not know his opponent's intentions, and there are dry systems against the Sicilian as well.

Carlsen has set a little trap.
23...Qd8
Anand avoids the trap, and everything comes off the board.
23...Qg5? 24.f4! (24.h4 is strong, but perhaps not as good as f4)
