eh it's not forced, black could easily see the outcome of taking the mindless captures and just NOT capture the rook, it's a won game for black.
true, but i figured it was worth posting. the point isn't that this would ever be a real game (why would that knight and the bishop be where they are?) but rather to illustrate the advantages of sacrificing pieces in an effort to gain a draw rather than defeat. also, given white's situation, the moves in the puzzle make the most sense, as white can't do much else.
