I saved the analysis but where is it?
If you made a blunder, it just means that you think you played a brilliant move which results in an immediate mate next turn when for example the piece can actually be captured.
You checkmated your opponent because your opponent did not find the best available move (in this case, capturing of the piece).
Things like this, for example, can happen.

Think of it this way: in day to day life we don’t think of bad decisions as being bad if something good happens as a result. In sports this happens all the time. An American Football quarterback can make a poor decision and throw a ball that that he shouldn’t, but if it turns into a winning score, his decision is celebrated even though it was a bad decision.
The computer evaluation doesn’t care about the result (winning), only the decision (hanging a piece). Just because your opponent made a worse decision doesn’t make your decision good, it just means you were lucky.
… and people say there is no luck in chess. Pfft.
