The game is not perfect by any means, but there is an interesting tactic at the end that is worth sharing. It doesn't have a proper name yet; someone referred to it as a "double windmill." This tactic involves using a knight, bishop, and rook. Many people liked it and suggested that I submit it to the Game of the Month contest. More on this here

A king attack with sacrifices, resulting in rook against two pieces with two connected passed pawns, but my opponent stopped them, so I switched attention to the kingside, it resulted with 3 pawns against two pieces, and in the grand finale I won with a classical bridge in a rook and pawn versus rook endgame. This game felt like playing 4 games in 1.

A major misunderstanding of the opening but with a few mistakes on both sides the game ended with a blunder on his side. A very lucky game and some moves I made also helped save my lost position!
