Thematic knight ending

Avatar of Elroch

A very good game had led to a knight ending where white had a centralised king and knight and a passed central pawn and black had a passed h-pawn. I already realised the only plan was to sacrifice my knight and prevent white's knight from sacrificing his knight. It went perfectly and the win is completely forced from the board position, as far as I can determine.

39...Kg4 was a very pleasant move, because it impedes knight paths to sacrifice so well!

Very unusually, the game was rated by the analysis tool as over 90% accurate in all three phases, with a 2350 rating.

Nice play. 45... Kg3 was more forcing for promotion as White cannot give checks but aside from that, nicely done.
