More or less yes, except it's 9 more games. The match ends if someone reaches 7.5 points, and Magnus now has 3, so with 9 more draws he wins the match by 7.5 to 6.5. Going into the last game the score is 7-6 so if Nepo wins then the match is tied and goes into tiebreaks.

CORRECTION (see below): this was game 6, not game 5 (I had lost count), so current score is 3.5 to 2.5, and there are potentially 8 classical games left.



This was Game 6. Magnus leads 3.5 to 2.5. There are only 8 more classical games remaining.


Oops, sorry, I just came back to fix that but you caught it first. I had somehow thought it was game 5.


I'm only aware of this through this post, but the website says Carlsen now has 3.5 points. So 8 draws.
