It's not just about sacrificing for material or a win
That is a sacrifice though. Although not sure why the second brilliant move is "brilliant". (e7+)
what does it take to get a brilliant move!

@Hightider Correct, it is two sacrifices. My point is that it doesn't always lead to a material gain or win. The reason the second move is !! allows for perpetual check, the only way to draw/save the game. *Edit- The reason for both sacrifices are to force perpetual check. If you look at the game with an eval bar you'll see that these moves ensure a draw, basically 2 defensive brilliancies.

Okay, I'd have to look at it again in a second but I didn't know that brilliances can be defensive, I thought it's whatever brings you closer to a win and not a draw.

It's all good. I took a look at your game, IMO as we develop as players, we underestimate the "easy to spot" moves. When someone that is 1000 elo points higher than me says, "I saw that move in a second" uh huh.... they should. When I started, I'd look at your move and think "Why would he just give away his horse?"

This game shows defensive brilliancies (if I would have played it properly I think it would have resulted in 6 !!) and is probably the funniest game I have ever played. The ending is the best plot twist, if I didn't play I wouldn't believe it was legit.
I didn't got one but if I got one I will be the happiest person alive

You have to make a sacrifice that either forces checkmate or gives you a great advantage. It tends to give them to beginners more easily than skilled players

If pawn takes queen takes and checks the king while attacking the rook, king moves and queen takes rook while checking the king, king moves and rook checkmates

You need to make a brilliant move. I’ve had a few. Not gonna lie, it does feel pretty good to get it.

I played Nxf4+. It was a discovered attack in a rook and knight endgame. Even so, I blundered the game away, but my opponent did too, so I won. I got 70.4 accuracy, with 1 brilliant, 3 great moves, 17 best, 6 excellent, 7 good, 5 book, 8 inaccuracies, 1 mistake, 2 misses and 1 blunder. I'm 600 rated BTW.
I have been playing chess for one year, but I have only made eight brilliant moves in my career. Brilliant moves require a lot of thinking and are quite difficult to find.
In this case, white scarified his knight (knight eat pawn), If pawn eat knight, queen to h5 to gives a check, black king go to e7 (forced), then bishop go to g5 and gives a check, black king go to d6 (forced), eventually lose a queen.
The best move for black is king go to e7, so white eventually win a pawn.
Mate is a brilliant move
