  plang: 9..Bxa3 was a new move that has not been repeated presumably because it increases White's attacking chances; 9..Bb4+ and 9..Be7 had been played previously. 13..Bc6? misplaced the bishop as there was no chance White would take the knight when it reached c4 thus opening the long diagonal; 13..Qc7 would have been better. 14..Nc4? allowed 15 Nh4; 14..Nc8 was necessary. 21..Ne4 22 fxe+..Kxe6 23 Ng6 (23 Bb2 is also powerful) 23..Nxg6 24 hxg and if 24..Rxg6 then 25 Qh5 wins due to the threat of Bxe4. 26..Rhg7 would have been a tougher defense though after 27 Rb2 White would have still been in control.
