Double exchange sacrifice by Mariya Muzychuk

Preparing a lesson on real sacrifices (as defined by Rudolf Spielmann) I found this exemplary victory by the ex world champion Mariya Muzychuk at the 4th Cairns Cup 2024. It will be gratifying to read your comments.

Great post. Double exchange sacrifice is rare. On the other hand, 41.g6 seems hasty. Perhaps it was better to develop the bishop to f4.

Exchange sacrifice is incredible for me. Double exchange sacrifice is simply spectacular! Here Black ́s king became weaker and White had a pawn majority on the kingside.

Did not look at it with an engine, but I don't think so. 41.g6 keeps the black king boxed in for the rest of the game, after 41.Bf4 Black could play 41... g6 herself to free her king and undermine the mighty knight.

My chess strength is low, but this comment makes a lot of sense to me.

I really liked this example. Black gave back some material, although it wasn't enough to save the game. I had only seen a couple of old examples in one of Bondarevsky's books.
