Kibitzer's Corner
Sep-06-21  Ulhumbrus: As the commentators indicated the pawn advance 31...f3!! uncovers the black queen on the diagonal c1-h6 and so gains access to the square c1 for the black queen and so acquires one of the ingredients for the combination (following the move 32 Qxf3) 32...Rxf2! 33 Rxf2 Qc1+ 34 Qd1 Qxd1 mate. This seems similar to some combinations in the book "Bobby Fischer teaches chess" with the difference that the black queen makes use of a diagonal ( the diagonal c1-h6) to reach the back rank square c1 instead of making use of an open file ( the c file in the present case) ) to reach the back rank square c1.
