📕 24.Bf5!
A fine move. By creating latent threats of back-rank mates White tries to force g6, which would open f6 for his other Bishop and make Black's 8th rank really chronically weak. 24...b5 25.Bb4! +- intending Re7.

📕 26.Bxc6!
This plan makes sense. Even now the battle for the central dark squares is pivotal. White is looking for access to the d4 square as a staging post en route to the greater spoils of c5. 26...bxc6 27.Nd4 Be4! 28.Nb3 Bd5 29.Nc5+/=
