When watching great players I am often amazed how stupid they apparently play and then somehow they still end on top after a sequence of moves.
Necessity is the mother of invention... by carefully paying attention to both players' tactical possibilities, I managed to fluster my opponent's ideas while advancing my own. This involved playing quite a few uncomfortable and unnatural moves in order to make progress.
Instead of 15. f4, I think better is h4,5 etc. f4 blocks the queen's diagonal entering the kingside and allows a bigger center after ...e4.
It's an interesting sac though. Two pawns for the piece and a huge pawn center. White has trouble developing the bishop.

Also, I don't understand 21. b3
