2 Brilliant Moves, 1 game!

Today, I was bored, so I decided to play some Blitz. I have recently been going in and out of the 1900s, and feel a bit like I have been playing carelessly and not winning easy positions.

However, in one of these games, I came across a player called lovac1950N, rated 1887, who played the Italian Game.

I am usually very happy when my opponents play the Italian against me, because, as an Italian, I have played and studied this opening a lot, and usually know much more theory than my opponents. This was no different.

My opponent played a standard Center Attack in the Giuoco Piano (Anyone rated above 1800 should play the Giuoco Pianissimo rather than the Giuoco Piano in my opinion), and played normally, until he took my knight on f6 on move 7. This is not standard theory, because black gets the bishop pair, strong development, and when white takes on g7, the pawn is gonna be won back, and the rook will be open. After that, I took the bishop, and my opponent plays another dubious move. Qe7+. My opponent probably thought that I either had to block with the queen, knight or dark squared bishop and lose it, move my king and lose castling rights or they would win the pawn on c4. This is not the case, because I block with the light squared bishop, protecting the pawn and developing a piece. Immediately after he takes my pawn and I move my rook, my opponent makes another mistake. They castle kingside (10. O-O). This is obviously a mistake, because I can take the pawn on g7, and have an attack on the king. Before I do that though, I play an in between move, d3!, attacking the queen and creating a passed pawn. 

We continue playing standard development moves, I line up my rooks and bishops against their king. This is an extremely pleasant position. After playing 19... Rg8, my opponent makes a fatal blunder. Bringing the position from -6, to -20. They play Bg3. After they play this move, I find the brilliant move Rxg3!!.

This move is brilliant because it not only weakens the king, but threatens another brilliant move which will appear later. My opponent takes full advantage of this and takes my rook. Checkmate is now unavoidable. We continue playing more moves, and after 23. Qa7, the move Rxg3 is justified. I played the second brilliant move, 23... Rh3!!. The white king has no safe squares to go, and they have to take the rook, and Qxh3 follows, delivering a checkmate. It was on move 24, that my opponent resigned.
