43... Kf5
Black now reaches his target - f4! It costs only the f-pawn, and wins the game.

 
44. Bxf7
This loses quickly. White could have held out with Kd3, heading for e2 to protect the f3 pawn.

 
44... Kf4
And, the plan has been carried out. The White kingside pawns must fall. Black's d5 is protected by the knight and his other pawns are on black squares, safe from the bishop. The Black king becomes the raider.

 
45. Bh5
Thinking to hold with Bg4.

 
45... Ng8
The knight is headed for f6, keeping the bishop off of both g4 and h5, allowing the king to pick up the pawn.

 
46. Kd2
Too late.

 
46... Nf6
Not only is the bishop kept from the protection of f3, but the knight is also protecting d5, so the bishop has no attacking move and no defensive move.

 
47. Bg6 Kxf3
The end.
