Bxe2 9. Qxe2 O-O 10. f4 e6

{ 11. dxe6 fxe6 12. Nf3 maintains a small advantage  for White}

  1. Nc4 exd5 12. exd5 Re8 13. Qf3 Nb6 14. Ne3 Qd7

{ 14….Qe7,  supporting the placement of a knight on e4, was better}

  1. Bd2 Re7 16. Rae1 Rae8 17. f5 a6 18. fxg6 hxg6 19. Ne2

{ Stockfish suggest 19. b3 in order to prevent the annoying Na4.  The move played loses a pawn by  19…. Nbxd5 20. Nxd5  Nxd5  20.  Qxd5  Rxe2 }

19… Ne4 { Not the best, but still posing problems for White. Evaluation  -2.2}

  1. Bc1 Ng5 21. Qf4 { 21. Qg3 was best when Black has nothing better than to return the knight to e4. 21…. Ne4  22.  Qf3  Nf6   -2.3 }

21… Rxe3 22. Bxe3 Nh3+

{ The immediate 22……Nxd5  23. Qxg5 Nxe3 was far better.  -4.5}

  1. gxh3 Nxd5 24. Qg4 Qxg4+ 25. hxg4 Nxe3 26. Rf3

{ This loses immediately. The best was 26 Nf4 when the subtle move Be5, maintains an advantage for Black.   -1.0 }

26… Nxc2  0-1
