This is Magnus vs. his app on his youtube channel, Magnus does commentary he's white while the app is Black go to 11:00 minutes....Magnus says he doesn't think black can take the pawn on a2.?? why black to move taking the pawn on a2 is threatening mate isn't it... after the take

chessmicky is completly right with his lines... But to be honest i find its really easy to see this in less than 10 seconds. Nh3 and Nf7 both win.
