A Challenge for you I: Mate_on_f7 edition (Inspired by @nyeh-heh-heh)

@Mate_On_f7 What do you mean ? White moves must be forced ? How is that the case in ab_lk's solution ? Or black moves ? (same ?) I don't get it.
@lecw that means that in your submission black can choose variants which don't lead to a forced checkmate in 5 moves by white.

(This is another puzzle [Chapter 2 of smothered mate])

Promote to a knight (not queen because you lose), don't capture anything with the pawns, but capture with your knight the f7 rook to give MATE!!!!
@lecw stockfish gives checkmate in 30 moves, may be a bug or something cuz I can't find a variation which doesn't lead to a checkmate in 5... Maybe you're right tho
