7...Qxg6 8.Qc8! Qf6 9.Re8+ +-

Black resigned.

A rook sacrifice that produces a dangerous passed pawn.

2...Nf6 3.f3! R3c5?!

3...Bd7 4.a7 R3c5 was preferable, although after 4.b4 Qxa7 5.bxc5 dxc5 6.Qf2 White's advantage is practically decisive – Golubev.

Recovering the rook with a decisive advantage thanks to the passed pawn.

Black resigned.

This helps White to create a strong passed pawn on the a-file. The prophylactic 1...Rec8 was better.

Simple but strong. Now that 3...Rec8 fails tactically, White wins the battle for the c-file.

Thanks to his outside passed pawn and active pieces, White is winning.
