Black can make a draw here with 49..Bd3+ since 50 b5 is answered by 50..Bxb5+! =

The move played was a mistake but White failed to capitalise after 49..Kc7 50 Bg3+ Kc8 and now he can go 51 b5 meeting 51..Bd3 with 52 a4 +-

Instead 51 Kb6? allowed 51..Bc2! 52 Ka5 Kb7 Now a sample line is 53 a4 Bd1 54 b5 Be2 55 Kb4 Bf1 56 Kc5 (56 a5 Bxb5 =) 56..Be2 57 b6 Ba6 =
