Please help me analyse my game, where have i gone wrong? because the fried liver attack shouldn't fail >:(

i actually think black had a chance of winning at the end if he played a2 or something, at some point during the end  game. like straight away when he created his pass pawn, instead of moving his rook AGAIN, he could have played a2. and he could have played a2 later on... etc

Of course u did someting wrong. Fried Liver attack is dubious and with a proper defense it is not "an AUTOMATIC WIN". Usually, if  Best play versus Best play using FLA, then black would win.

Well if you could post the proper defense on... every variation ive seen so far means that white is a piece or pawn up.

You should look it up in an opening database (or book). Since the Fegatello is just about the oldest trick in the book, there should be plenty about it (and if it was as good as you say, I'm sure a lot more strong players would be using it).

I think you should've considered 13 Bd2. On 13... Bb4 you can then play 14 Ne4. Once you got into bishops of opposites, it's a tough game to win.
