Carlsen-Karjakin Game 4

It was just game 4. There are 8 more to go. They cannot be tired already!
They played the Ruy Lopez, one of the most popular and deeply analyzed openings.
Karjakin was most fortunate to get a draw in that game. It was like Carlsen had him on the ropes pounding away, but he didn't get knocked out, and came up with a fortress in a very passive, and bleak position.

I'm curious as to who will have momentum from this draw.

Carlsen on the one hand was giving him the beat down...
but
Karjakin's draw here has to feel like a win
