White to move
In order to swap the defender on c6.
1...Nxb4 2.Qxb4 Ka8 3.Rc3! Rxf4 4.Bxa6!?
A tempting sacrifice to intensify the attack;
4...Qxd1+ 5.Ka2 bxa6?
Black overlooks 5...Qd5 6.Qb6 Rxe4 , when White has to settle for a draw by 7.Bb5 , followed by Qa5-c7-a5.
6.Qb6 Bb7 7.Na5! Rb8 8.Nc6! Qg1 9.Qxg1 Bxc6 10.Rxc6 Rb7 11.Qe3 Rg4 12.Rc8+ Rb8 13.Qc3
