Mamedyarov vs Carlsen, can it be drawn ?

Here's are comments for the game Mamedyarov vs Carlsen live analysis. This game has led to a lot of discussions and many feel that Shak resigned prematurely. Well, to an extent, it wseems to be true. But the advantage is not overwhelming. Please note that we have added a few moves to the game after Mamed resigned, that is after 40. ... Ne3.
We present a line that could possibly lead to a draw with accurate play from white.

Also note that Carlsen suggested that white could have played on with 41. Ra5. But that line seems to be inferior. He was confident though, that his position was winning. Prodigies such as Carlsen do have a intuitive feel for the position. He was right, but Mamed had his chances.
