Rapport's blunder. He could have defended by 46.Bd2 Re7 47.Kf1! and Black can not easily win. Now if 47...Re2?? 48.Rรc2! +/-.

Quite simply it starts to rather resemble an open Sicilian in which the fixed center denies black the customary counterplay. The ease with which the pawn-storm hits the spot is impressive.

Goes without saying! The right moment cannot be missed. By pushing the knight from f6, White creates disharmony among black's pieces, which becomes a crucial factor when the position is opened.
