35.Qa7?! An unnecessary move. The white queen had an ideal position and the 7th rank could have been controled by the rook

[35.c5!‚ △Qb3 would be better. 35...Qe6 36.Ra7+– Black would really suffer from a lack of space. 36...Nf8 37.Qe2 △Qa6 37...Rd7 38.Ra8 g5 39.Qa6 Kf7 40.Rc8 Qg4 41.Qxc6 Ng6 42.Kh2+–]

35...Kf8 36.c5 Qb8 37.Qa6 Qc7 38.Ne1 b3 39.Nd3 Rb8 40.Ra3 Ke7 41.Qc4 Qb7 42.Ra5 g5 43.Qa4 Black resigned. A likely continuation could be:

43.Qa4 Kd8 44.Ra6 Qb5 45.Qxb5 Rxb5 46.Rxc6 Ra5 47.Kf3 Ra4 48.g4 Rc4 49.Ke3 Rc2 50.Re6 Nxc5 51.Nxc5 Rxc5 52.Rxf6+–1–0
