There are given points with integer coordinate $(m,n)$ such that $1\leq m,n\leq 4$. Two players, Ana and Ben, are playing a game: First Ana color one of the coordinates with red one, then she pass the turn to Ben who color one of the remaining coordinates with yellow one, then this process they repeate again one after other. The game win the first player who can create a rectangle with same color of vertices and the length of sides are positive integer numbers, otherwise the game is a tie. Does there exist a strategy for any of the player to win the game?

1994 All-Russian Olympiad, 8

Players $ A,B$ alternately move a knight on a $ 1994\times 1994$ chessboard. Player $ A$ makes only horizontal moves, i.e. such that the knight is moved to a neighboring row, while $ B$ makes only vertical moves. Initally player $ A$ places the knight to an arbitrary square and makes the first move. The knight cannot be moved to a square that was already visited during the game. A player who cannot make a move loses. Prove that player $ A$ has a winning strategy.
