Hi! In the game between Hou Yifan and Zhao Xue, Black seems to leave a piece hanging on mov 14, and White does not take it!
Could it be the move-score is wrong?

Thus, in the game I just mentioned,
Hou Yifan- Zhao Xue, after
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 5. 0-0 Be7 6.Re1 b5 7.Bb3 0-0 8.a4 b4 9.d3 d6 10.Nbd2 Rb8 11.h3 Na5 12.Ba2 h6 13.Nc4 Bd7 White does not take the Knight on a5, which appears to be hanging, and only until 14.c3 bxc3 15.bxc3 c5 is the knight protected.
Any idea as to what happened?
