2 Pieces vs Rook Endgame

The value of rooks increases in the endgame (as they are more active), so I was hoping this wouldn't end in a draw. It's been a while since I had this imbalance. Also, a neat mate at the end

It is utterly decisive to have coordination. In order to install it more pieces -especially heavy pieces- are needed.

A single rook vs. two pieces is often equal. When both sides have more pieces the two pieces prevail.
