8/3/10 [Eco "E13"]
This could be one of the biggest upsets of the summer.

35.Qc7
Interestingly, this is White’s only winning move. White now has the luxury
of checking on the back rank (skewering the queen) in addition to pinning
the knight on d7 if the black king flees to e7.
35...Rd1+
Gets
the rook out of harms way. (If instead 35...Ke7 then 36.Ne5.)
36.Kh2 Ke7
Black still has no play on the kingside: 36...Qg6 37.Nd6+ Ke7 38.Rxf7+
37.Ne5
Now it’s forced.
37…Rxd4 38.Nc6+ Kf8 39.Nxd4 1-0
