18. ... Rc7 19. Bd3 Nc8 20. Re1 Nd6 21. Rb4 Kf8 22. a4 Bg5 23. g3 Re7 24. h4 Bh6 25. Rd1


25. ... Rd7? This is the losing move. 25. ... Be3 26. Bf1 Re6! was to be preferred.
26. Bf5 Rd8 27. Na5 Ke8. If 27. ... Ke7 then 28. Nxb7 Nxf5 29. Nxd8 Rxd8 30. Rb7+ Ke8 31. Rxd8+ Kxd8 32. Rxa7 and the ending is won for White.


28. Rxd6! A brilliant Exchange sacrifice, which ensures White a winning endgame.
28. ... Rxd6 29. Rxb7 a6 (29. ... Kf8 30. Nc4 Rd4 31. b3+−)
