  FSR: Not exactly a model Meran by Lundin. Instead of 10...Be7?, he should have heeded the advice (admittedly only offered over half a century later) of Swing Out Sister:

<♫♪♫ The time has come to make or break Move on, don't hesitate
Break out!

Don't stop to ask
And now you've found a break to make at last
You've got to find a way
Say what you want to say
Break out!

When situations never change
Tomorrow looks unsure
Don't leave your destiny to chance
What are you waiting for
The time has come to make your break
Break out! ♫♪♫>

In other words, 10...c5! with equality was correct. Opening Explorer. But it seems the move, like the song, was barely played until decades later. https://www.chessgames.com/perl/che... Understandable, since it looks dangerous to play such a move with Black's king still in the center.
