He certainly wasn't a happy man at the press conference, understandably.
His endgame play has been pretty poor these last 2 games though hasn't it? I don't even mean relative to Carlsen's, which is generally excellent - he just isn't seeing things clearly in the 5th and 6th hour of play.
I can't see him getting back into the match now unless Carlsen gets very, very sloppy in the openings (not completely out of the question!)
