@PabloDPena At the end of the game Hikaru's manner would indicate that he has more time. Also as you play through the game you see that Magnus has lots of problems to solve and at the end of the game he is moving almost immediately on his 2s increment which, in part, leads him to blundering the exchange to 34...Nf3+. This clearly and strongly implies that Hikaru won, but just in case there's any doubt go to game number 1599842 on the chessgames website.

@cellardoor70 Exactly... I wonder how many moves are already memorized before variations come into play.

@xDirectJABx Naka won on time. Carlsen extended his hand first, and as you can tell towards the end, he was running out of time, trying to make moves faster.

I'm pretty sure Carlsen won on time...
