Bishop versus knight endgame
In round 3 of the Vezerkepzo 2022 May GM tourney I played with International Master Stefan Mazur from Slovakia.
He played the surprising e4-e5 pawn sacrifice in the beginning of the classical sicilian. I declined the present. He got a small edge in the rooks and minor piece endgame. We exchanged the rooks and got an equal endgame. In the time trouble I defended well and after his blunder I was winning in the race of pawns versus bishop, but missed the right move order:
