29. f3 Bxf3
30. gxf3 Rd2 and mate

 
30. Nxe3 Bc6 31. Re2 Qxb4 32. Rf1 Rxf1+ 33. Nxf1 h6 34. Qf2 Qxa4 35. Re7
Looking for a perpetual

 
35... Qd4 36. Ne3 Be4
! Now the perpetual is no longer possible, white has to exchange down into a lost endgame

 
37. Nf1 Qxf2+ 38. Kxf2 Bc6 39. Rc7 Kf8 40. h4 Ra3
40...Rd7 was simpler

 
41. g3 Rf3+ 42. Ke2 Rf7 43. Rxf7+ Kxf7 44. Ne3 Be4 45. Kd2 Ke6 46. Kc3 Ke5 47. Nc4+ Kd5 48. Nb6+ Kc6 49. Nc4 Kc5 50. Nd2 Bd5 51. g4 b5 52. Kd3 b4 53. Ke3 b3 54. Kd3 Kb4 55. Kd4 Be6 56. Nxb3
Despair

 
56... Kxb3 57. g5 hxg5 58. hxg5 g6
After Bf5 it will be easy for black to take the g5 pawn..
