Mohsen Sharbaf has made a mistake by this brave sacrifice. He is an Iranian international master with a sharp style.

📘 15.b4!
A very interesting pawn sacrifice. The first intention is to cross black's simple plan of playing ...cxd4 and ...Nc5-e4, which would seem to offer him a fair share of the play. 15...cxd4 is still possible, but after 16 Nxd4 black's knight is denied the obvious route to make a similar impact.

📘 20.Bxf6!
Another typical Catalan liquidation. White has intended to play Nc4 but he was afraid of ...Nxe4. In this moment the immediate route to c5 is very much the issue too.
20.e4? the weakening of the d3-square; 20...Ne5!
20.a5 Bd8!
