Consider the following game on the graph K4. There are two players, a red color player R and a blue color player B. Initially all edges of K4 are uncolored. The two players alternately color an uncolored edge of K4 with their color until all edges are colored. The goal of B is that in the end, the blue-colored edges form a spanning tree of K4. The goal of R is to prevent B from achieving his goal. Assume that B starts the game. Show that B will win, no matter what R does.
