Cheating in Chess

Here is the thread about the recent controversy.

Chess - Carlsen-Niemann controversy

I don’t know chess well enough to analyze the moves. The players are searched. This article says Magnus started with a bad opening. He wasn’t playing well. I’m bothered that an unspoken and unproven allegation by Magnus Carlson is putting Hans Niemann’s reputation and career in jeopardy. How does anyone defend themselves against a suspicion? This sound like sour grapes. The champion had a bad game and created this unproven rumor.
