Black had 7 minutes to 7 seconds for White. Here Black played Bg7 which is illegal and white used 3 seconds to call it illegal. Those 3 seconds were put pack onto White's clock and he did not get 2 minutes for the illegal move because it was still in the first, non-suddent death time control. Black to move.
