World Team 2013: How can Khenin miss such an obvious and good move? Pls explain

On move 16 why didn't he move 16. Nxe7+?

He just blundered away the game.

Here is the game:



Pre_VizsIa

that's very odd

I have a feeling that the game-score (the moves) were reported incorrectly. Here is a quote from the official report on the Chessdom web-site:

" As for Ivanchuk, he punished Khenkin for playing a little bit tame and won in a very clean and technical way."

... no mention of a bizarre double-blunder.

Perhaps the moves actually played in the game were:

15. Nd3 Nb4 16. Nxb4 Nxf4 17. exf4 Bxb4

Pre_VizsIa

maybe 15. Nd3 Nb4 16. Nxb4 Nxf4 17. exf4 Bxb4
