Learn Chess Tactics 1 - Spassky vs Fischer

This is meant to be a lower intermediate kind of video for chess players focusing on their tactical skills, just like I am.

The position I'm gonna be talking about is from a 1970's game between, then world champion, Boris Spassky with white and, future world champion, Robert Fischer with black. It was held in the town of Siegen in west Germany during the 19th Chess Olympiad. Which the russians won over 60 other national teams.
