22.fxe3!
If you follow the course of the game after 22 fxe3 you will see that not only has the f-file been opened for the white queen and rooks by the structure-wrecking 22 fxe3, but so has the second rank. Thus, when the second wave of White's attack appears with 31 g4, it is thanks to 22 fxe3 that Rg2 is possible to support the advance on the g-file. Sasikiran is curiously helpless at putting real pressure on the doubled pawns after 22 fxe3. He gets his knight to c4, but White defends e5 comfortably with Qf4, after which the pressure on the f-file dissuades Black from trying to arrange a second attack on the pawn with ...Qc7. And when the black queen combines with the knight against e3, Re2 defends the pawn without slowing down White's kingside operations. So let's see how Mamedyarov utilized the squares made available by 22 fxe3:
22...Nb6 23.Nh5 Ne8 24.Ref2 Rc8 25.Qg4 Nc4 26.Qg5 h6 27.Qf4 Qe7 28.Bh3 Qc5 29.Re2 Qb6 30.b3 Na5 31.g4 Kh7 32.g5 g6 33.gxh6 gxh5 34.Rg2 Nc6 35.Qg5 f5 36.Qg6+ 1-0
