32.Ne2 Rc6 33.Nf4 Ne4?
Black's wrong evaluation. Idani should have repeated moves with 33...Rc3.

Idani himself says that he had not seen this move.

Now, the f6-pawn will also fall. Black should have continued with 55...Rd7.

13.f5!
Another provocative move! However, it is not easy for Black to exploit the weakening of the e5-square, and White restricts the bishop on d7. The character of the play has changed sharply: Black is obliged to think about parrying the threats that have arisen, and Nunn lost his composure. True, his initial replies were the most natural...

Here is my novelty! The position has taken on new colors: d4-d5 is threatened, and the powerful white bishops begin raking the opponent's practically undefended kingside. Here Portisch stopped to think. It is strange that he did not anticipate this. (Kasparov)
15...cxd4? (15...Na5!) 15.exd4 Na5 16.d5!+/-.
