I just a short time ago finished this blitz game over at FICS. Now, my opponent made some dubious moves nd some poor choices in the opening, undoubtedly. I may have as well, in fact. The sequence led to what I thought was a fairly beautiful sacrificial ending where Black sacrificed a Knight and Rook for the win. I wanted to share it with you.
Did you notice 5. Nxe5 Qe7? It wins the pawn back in my opinion, e.g. 6. d4 d6. I also think you should have played 7...Qe7 to defend both pawns. 9...0-0 was probably also safer and should win.
nice win anyway.
