世界杯第2轮首场中国棋手两和一负
FIDE世界杯锦标赛将于2005年11月26日～12月18日在俄罗斯Khanty
Mansyisk举行。128位棋手将参加比赛。伊万丘克是这次比赛的头号种子棋手。中国有9位棋手将参加比赛。中国棋手中，徐俊以1.5-0.5击败叶江川进入下一轮比赛，王玥以1.5-0.5战胜亚美尼亚的Asrian进入下一轮比赛。章钟，余少腾和李师龙分别与对手1－1战平，需要加赛快棋。王皓、赵骏和倪华分别负于对手被淘汰。加赛快棋章钟1.5-0.5击败对手晋级，李师龙和余少腾负于对手出局。中国参赛棋手中，徐俊，王玥和章钟出线进入下轮比赛。
在第2轮第1场比赛中我国棋手两和一负。徐俊执黑短和代表匈牙利的Cao,
Sang，王玥执黑在西西里防御弈和以色列名将斯米林。章钟执白在西班牙开放变例下迎战荷兰名将索科洛夫。可能是白方开局不够精确，索科洛夫的黑棋很快就反多主动权，黑棋在后翼和中心发动兵的冲击，白棋子力不协调，难以进行有效的抵抗，黑棋很快取得胜利。荷兰名将索科洛夫来自波黑，属于实力强劲的特级大师，近年等级分保持在2700左右。他与上世纪80年代苏联国家队的A.索科洛夫不是同一人，后者在世界冠军赛半决赛失利后酗酒，棋艺一落千丈，近年娶了法国老婆，移民法国，偶尔在法国的比赛中出现。
