π 62.Rd1??
In the time trouble, Amirreza made a fatal blunder.
He should have played 62.Rc8 Nc5+ 63.RΓc5 KΓc5 64.g6 +- and White would be completely winning.
62.Kc4 63.Rd6 Nc5+ 64.Ka5 Rb5#

π30...h5?
Black has wrongly weakened his kingside. (Better is 30...BΓf6 31.RΓe4 Nc5 32.BΓc5 QΓc5=)
31.Bf5! BΓf6
(31...gΓf5 32.QΓh5 Black cannot escape mate).

π 23.Rf1!
An excellent idea. White calculates that the exchange of queens on d4 will enable his c-pawn to provide the passed d6 pawn with some very effective assistance. This requires the rook to immediately return to the b-file which to me all makes quite an impression. 23...Qd4+ 24.Qxd4 cxd4 25.Rb1! Bd7 26.Bf3 b6 27.c5 Rc8 26.c6!

π16...Na5!
The start of an efficient reorganization of Black's forces which gives fair counterplay on the light squares. 17.b3 Rc8 18.Bd2 Bc6 19.Re1 0-0 20.g3 Nb7 and then 20...Nc5.
