Another trade-off: the h-pawn is expendable if it allows the c-pawn to promote.

 
44... c3 45. Kg6
One last gasp, but it is hopeless. Even if I allowed him to win both the h- and f-pawns, I could simply trade my queen for his f-pawn and my king would still pick off his a- and b-pawns for the win.

 
45... Ke5
But this solidifies the blockade of his f-pawn and he finally relents. 0-1
