This move leads to a drawish wrong bishop endgame.
The correct continuation was (73...Be8! 74.Ke5 Bb5 75.Ke4 Bd7 76.Ke5 Kg6 77.Kd6 Be8 78.Ke5 Kf7 79.Kf4 Bd7 -+)

๐Ÿ“• 12.Ne5! A brilliant pawn sacrifice. 12...Nxe5 13.dxe5 Bxe5 14.Bxe5 Qxe5 15.f4 Qc7 16.Nb6
White not only rid himself of his bad dark-squared Bishop but has somehow managed to saddle Black with his bad light-squared Bishop.

A simple blow - transforming both minor pieces and the direction of the initiative. An instructive classical example.
