25. Rd4xd6
He takes.

 
25... Be6
I offered a draw here. White has a very slight material advantage, but it is virtually impossible to convert.

 
26. b3
So he supports a4

 
26... Nh4
I attack a pawn

 
27. Rd1d3
He protects.

 
27... Kc7
With a view to the following combination. If now 28. c4 Nxf3 29. Rxe6 fxe6 30. Rxf3 Rxe4 we manage to reach an ending with level material. But my opponent makes the losing blunder.

 
28. Rd6d8
This is a terrible move!

 
28... Nxf3
Ouch!

29. Rh8
He hits a pawn

 
29... Nxh2
I take another.

 
30. Rxh6
He takes.

 
30... Ng4
Hit the rook!

 
31. Rh5
He moves.

 
31... Nf6
Now I am winning another pawn and will have two connected passed pawns.

 
32. Rh1
As it is pretty hopeless for white I will not comment on the next few moves.

 
32... Nxe4 33. Rg1 g4 34. Rd4 f5 35. Rh1 f4 36. Rh7+ Kc6 37. b4 f3 38. Kb2
He wants to play b5+ Kc5 and Rc7 mate, but first he needs to protect his rook on d4 with c3, and first he moves his king up to protect c3. But it is too slow.

 
38... f2 39. b5+ Kc5 40. c3 Nxc3 41. Kxc3 Re3+
and white resigns. Many thanks for reading this, please comment and rate this annotation on the star system.
