They play a series of tiebreakers at shorter and shorter time controls until there is a decisive result. | ||

Also, Anands question "Is it a cocktail?" hahaha, they just seem so friendly towards each other despite the competition and the age difference. They are actually good friends, at least they were before the first match Anand used to be Carlsen's mentor, then Carlsen helped Anand prepare for his world championship match against Kramnik. | ||

I think recently Anand said that the World championship rivalry got in the way of them being friends now. | ||
