17. cxd5
still blocking the b7 bishop

 
17... a6
protecting b5 square -both knight on c3 and bishop on d3 wouldn't mind to get there!

 
18. f4
White wants to bring heavy artillery into the game - rook on f1

 
18... Nc5 19. fxe5
opening f-file for the rook

 
19... Nh6
preventing Rxf7

 
20. Rae1
Supporting pawn on e5 and bringing another rook into the game. Mistake - should have played Rc3. White queen is overloaded - protecting 2 pieces at once (knight on g5 and bishop on d3)

 
20... Nxd3
Black uses this fact

 
21. Qxd3 Qxg5
1 piece down

 
22. e6
White's pieces are better developed - pushing pawns forward with the idea to open up the black king more

 
22... fxe6 23. Qd4+ Kg8 24. Ne4
Threatening fork on f6

 
24... e5
preventing the fork

 
25. Qc4
White is 1 piece down, so no trading queens at this stage! instead white attacks the c7 pawn AND prepares the discovered check (pawn d6) AND still attacking the black queen

 
25... Kh8
Fatal mistake - this also happens to me - when analysing different ways to respond you forget the obvious - the queen is still under attack.

 
26. Nxg5
