<40.Ke3?> and draw. 40.g4! wins, it's not difficult to find this move if you looks on pawn structure on kingside g5 & h6 black pawns could been stopped by white pawn on g4

Now not 50...gxh3?? 51. a7 and White's new queen will cover Black's queening square on h1, but <50...g3> and both sides will queen.
