📘 35.Q×d5?
White's miscalculation. When your pieces are hanging, grabbing a pawn is not logical.
(38.Q×b6 Qd1+ 39.Kg2 Qc2+ —->Q×f5 -+)

📘 In this position, Black could have forced a draw by 49...Ra1+ 50.Ke2 Ra2+, but Parham is smart enough to try his only winning chance.
49...g5+! 50.h×g5 Ra1+ 51.Ke2 Ra2+ 52.Kd3? (52.Ke1=) Rd2+ 53.Kc3 Rd1! 54.Re4 h4 -+

📘 Black needed to swap a pair of rooks to win the game.

📘 18...B×h3!!
An excellent sacrifice by 21-year-old German Rasmus Svane.
19.g×h3 Qg5+ 20.Kh1 Rac8!
Black does not waste time. Now the ...Bh2+ is fatal.

17.Rb1
Fine prophylaxis. The immediate point is to reconfirm the role of b3 in supporting c4, but there is a deeper point about the unfortunate placement of Black's minor pieces on the b-file. 17...c6 18.c4 Qc7 19.Bd3+/-.

📘 18...Ra7!
An excellent idea. If 18...Rfc8, White could triple on the c-file: 18...Rfc8? 19.Rc1 Rxc6 20.Qxc6 Qxc6 Nxc6+/-.
