After a thorough study and watching Tal's way of playing, I finally was able to do his way of moving in this game I recently played.
I feel happy about my knight sacrifice.

Watch all famous games of Mikhail Tal in you tube as narrated and further illustrated by Mato Jelic. Such a wonderful elaboration of all the games. Classical games I supposed to say in exact terms.
Right Sherlock. Adopting or let us just say imitating his ways in controlling the board makes your way of playing chess different as you used to. His principles of eliminating opponent's pieces for him to manuever and activate effectively is a very good knowledge. Does not matter whether you are down by two minor or major pieces as long as you have active ones and control the squares, you still have a big chance to mate the king. I agree, Tal ways is very inspiring.

Yes, Tal is very inspiring . Before time i was reading " In the fire of attack ",dedicated to Tal and at this time i was always trying to sacrifice in my games.
