30...Qc3? [In the opposite-colored bishop position, Black probably thought that he will be able to hold the game by exchanging the queens. But it would have been better to keep the position.]

[30...Ra8+/= △Qa7]

31.Qxc3! bxc3 32.Rc1 Rb8 33.Rxc3± Rb4 34.Rc7 [△Be6]

34...Kf8 35.Rc8+ Ke7 36.Ra8 a4 37.Rxa4 Rxa4 38.bxa4 Ke8 39.a5 Bd8 40.a6 Bb6 41.f4! f6 42.f5 Kf7 43.fxg6+ Kxg6 44.Bf5+ Kg7 45.Kf3 h6 46.Kg4 Bc5 47.Bd7 Kg6 48.Be8+ Kg7 49.Kf5 Kf8 50.Bh5 Ke7 51.Be2 Kf7 52.a4 Bb6 53.a5 Bc5 54.Bh5+ Ke7 55.Kg6 Be3 56.Be2 [The moral of the game is 'not all opposite colored bishop endgames are drawn!'] 1–0
