📘 39...Nc8? seems inactive.
40.Be6! Re8 41.Bf5+ Kh8 42.Rh5! +-
Better was 39...Nb5+ that controls key squares d4, c3 and c7.
40.Kd3 Qe7! black is trying to create counterplay.

An interesting novelty by the Latvian grandmaster. Accepting the sacrifice against a full-prepared opponent without prior preparation seems extemely dangerous. For instance,
9...exd4 10.Nd5 Qd8? 11.e5! +-
10...Qa5 seems a better choice and white has some compensation for his positional sacrifice. Firouzja made a wise practical decision and did not accept the piece.
9...h6 10.fxe5 dxe5 11.Bxf6 Nxf6 12.Nf5
And with transposition of move orders we have arrived at Yu Yangi- Le Quang Liem 2011.

📘 Black is threatening to take back the strong pawn on d6 by playing 10...e5
10.Nd4!+/- is the only move that prevents black from playing e5.

📘 Tal has great lead in development, and as a result he should react drastically to realize his temporary advantage. After 10.f5? Bxf5 there is no clear way to continue the attack and 10.Kh1 is blunt. The correct continuation is to start an attack by:
10.Ng5! Bxe2 11.Qxe2 h6 12.Nxf7! Kxf7 13.f5!
with a fierce attack.
10.Ng5! Bxe2 11.Qxe2 h6 12.Nxf7! Kxf7 13.f5!
with a fierce attack.
📘 26...Ne6?! seems strong but fails to 27.Qd6 and black can hardly find a move to claim advantage. For instance, 27...Bb1? is a mistake in view of 28.Bxe6 Rxe6 29.Qxf8+-.
The seemingly good 26...Re2?! to invade the second rank does not yield any advantage for black as other black pieces can hardly join this rook.
The best choice is 26...Bb1. By this move, black blocks Ra1, to enable himself to invade the first rank. By emptyig the f5 square, black is also threatening to play 27...Ne6 and respond 28.Qd6 with 28...Qf5!
