If 56. Rxh7+, then 56...Kg8 57. g7 Rg2+ 58. Kh3 (58. Kh4? Rh2+ 59. Kg3/Kg4 Rxh7 60. gxf8=Q+ Kxf8) Rxg5 59. gxf8=Q+ Kxf8 60. fag5.

If 56. g7+, then 56...Kg8 57. gxf8=Q+ (57. Rxh7 transposes into the line above) Kxf8 58. Rxh7 Rg2+ 59. Kh3 Rxg5 60. fxg5 Bxa4 61. Rxa7 Be8 62. Rb7 b5.

If 56. gxh7, then 56...Rg2+ 57. Kh3/Kh4 Rxg5, winning.
