16. Nh4 Kh8 |
white still can't take the bishop for the very same reasons, so the black king steps aside to allow a rook access to the g file | ||||
| | |||||
|
17. Qc2 |
realising his queen is completely offside white sets about getting her into the action | ||||
| | |||||
|
17... Bxg2 |
?! not a very strong sacrifice, black should simply add to his pressure with moves like Rg8. | ||||
| | |||||
|
18. Nxg2 |
obviously not Kxg2 which loses instantly to Rg8 | ||||
| | |||||
|
18... Qh3 19. f4 |
! strong defencive move, both blocks out the darksquare bishop and opens the 2nd rank for the white queen | ||||
| | |||||
|
19... Reg8 |
? black needs to work hard to prove the sacrifice was any good. here black could take a draw by Rxe3 when after 20.Nxe3 Rg8 21.Ng4 Qg3 he has perpetual, but black doesn't want to let white get away with his earlier mistakes so lightly. | ||||
| | |||||
|
20. Bf3 Bxf4 |
! the only way black can possibly play for an advantage, black needs as many pieces as possible in this attack and those pawns are keeping 2 of them out. this way at least one of the knight and bishop can participate. | ||||
| | |||||
|
21. exf4 Nd4 22. Qf2 |
! the best square for the queen | ||||
| | |||||
|
22... Rg3 |
? threatening the bishop and preparing to double rooks. | ||||
| | |||||
|
23. Bd5 |
! yet another great defencive move, blocks the file for the rook and makes the kinght en prise | ||||
| | |||||
|
23... Rdg8 |
? white cant take the knight as his g2 knight drops with mate but black overlooks a simple tactic that allows white exchange off the knight | ||||
| | |||||
|
24. Ra2 |
?! Ne2 wins on the spot here as it forces off my knight and then black has nothing for his 2 pieces except some superficial pressure on the white king which is easily dealt with | ||||
| | |||||
|
24... Nf5 |
the knight needs to get further into the action and avoiding Ne2 | ||||
| | |||||
|
25. Qe1 |
?! giving black unnessicary chances. after the brilliant defending so far black should be completely lost | ||||

|
25... Ne3 |
the best chance, black needs all his pieces to be working harmoniously if the attack is going anywhere | ||||

|
26. Rff2 Ng4 |
now black has some real threats on the black king, which is alot more than he deserves | ||||
| | |||||
|
27. Ne4 |
? this shows just how difficult defending is, all those great defencive moves earlier wrecked by a couple of not so good ones. | ||||
| | |||||
|
27... Re3 28. Qa1 |
?? loses on the spot, white should give back some material by Nxe3 when after 28...Nxe3 29.Ng5 white is up a rook for 2 pawns and blacks attack has lost some steam | ||||
| | |||||
|
28... Qh2+ |
and white resigns as its mate next move. it just shows how difficult defending is in chess, 2 moves both which look perfectly natural and logical can lead to an attack that has no prospect becoming quite threatening with real chances and one big blunder can lead to an instant loss. as always if you have any questions or comments about the game please feel free to message me. | ||||
