Kd2 Ba6 { This commits Black to an unclear piece sacrifice. 16...Nxa2 would have regained the pawn and still allowed Black to keep some initiative. } 17. a3 { Black was threatening 17...c3+ 18. Qxc3 Rfc8. However, if Black plays 17...c3+ now, then White replies 18. Qxc3 Rfc8 19. Nxc8 Rxc8 20. Qxc8+ Bxc8 21. axb4 with enough material for the Queen. } 17... Nxc2 18. Kxc2 cxb3+ 19.
