18... Qg3+
A clever line and the best for black

 
19. Kg1 Bxe4 20. Qe1
Have to do something about this kingside rampage White - 9 minutes Black - 11 minutes

 
20... Bxd5 21. Bf2
Intending to kick the queen away then take on d5. Alternative is cxd5, Rxe3, dxc6 which in hindsight is fine. I think Bxf3 is strong here for black. Picking up a hell of alot of material for the queen.

 
21... Qf4
But not spotted in the time rush.

 
22. cxd5 Rxd5 23. Rd1
Planning to swap off into a winning endgame White - 5 minutes Black - 2 minutes

 
23... Ra5
weak move in the time rush.

 
24. Qd2
Persisting about the swap-off.

 
24... Rxa2
Missing white's next move due to complete lack of thinking time!

 
25. Qd7+
Kb8, Qxe8 , Kc7, Rd7#
