Black has not managed to evacuate his king (the queenside looks relatively the safest), and the game is now decided by energetic play along the central files:
15.Bxd5! exd5 16.Nxd5 Qd6 17.Nxc6
White also keeps a fierce attack after 17.Nb3.
17...Bxc6 18.Bc5! Qxc5

Black had calculated that White could not play 15.Bd2, because of the check at a1. But White simply ignores the queenside, evacuating his king to a safe place, and then begins an attack on the kingside:
15.0-0! Bxc3 16.Ng5!
Black had only counted on 16.bxc3 Nxc3 17.Bd1 Qe4 18.Ba3 Nd7, with an unclear battle.
16...Bb4 17.Bh5
White breaks through to the black king, who even fails to escape to relative safety on the queenside.
17...Kd7 18.Nxh7 Re8 19.Bxf7 Re7 20.Bxe6+! Kc6
20...Kxe6 21.Nf8+ Kf5 22.Qg6#.
21.Bxd5+ Kxd5 22.Qg3
The black king is fighting on his own against the white army, and the outcome of the game is decided.
