Black can pinch a pawn with 1. .. Nxg2! and a much better (probably winning) position in view of white's lack of coordination and king weakness. The tactical refutation of recapturing on g2 is 2. Kxg2?? Rxe2!, and if 3. Kg3 to protect the queen, then 3. .. Rg2+ is a common tactic. Black would be winning with 2 pawns + queen for a rook and knight.jcmorrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04373051963131928238noreply@blogger.com
