“Before the decisive 32nd game I asked Viktor not to play the Pirc.
“Please,
play the French! You haven’t lost a single French against Karpov in the
two
matches!” Unfortunately, Keene, Stean and Petra were already giving
interviews anticipating Korchnoi’s victory…”

Yes, it was really very strange to see Korchnoi playing the Pirc-Ufimcev
defence.
