24.e5!
A strong pawn sacrifice to penetrate the opponent's position.
24...dxe5 25.d6 exd6 26.Ne4
in view of the multiple threats that the powerful white knight generated (e.g. capturing on d6 thus deflecting the black queen from its vital task of supporting g6), the English superstar decided to hit the emergency button. Ultimately though this was to no avail:
