I just played a blitz game and at the end I managed to find a forced mate in 5. Check if you can find it. It starts from move 30 (move 29 was preparation but my opponent didn't notice and carelessly played aggressive Raa7).
In the end of the game I’m up a whole knight but the mate is not relevant to the knight, also if I was going to hold the game and win by the extra piece, who knows what would have happened and if my opponent was able to turn the table, especially since it’s a blitz game and time is a big factor, I smelled mate and instead of playing defensive move like Rf8 I went for it and it worked.
