Quite tough for the easy section ...

... but a very nice ending of a real game

Great stuff.

Spent a few minutes looking for a variation on Legal, then discovered the key move of blocking in the Rook. Lovely.

It appears to me White sacrificed his Queen at e2 by moving his Knight from f3 and out of the way of Black's Bishop at g4, into this brilliant combination!

1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Nf6 3.f4 Nc6 4.fxe5 Nxe5 5.d4 Ng6 6.e5 Ng8 7.Nf3
d6 8.Bd3 dxe5 9.dxe5 Bc5 10.Qe2 Bg4 11.Ne4 Bb6 12.Bg5 Qd5
13.Rd1 Qa5+ 14.c3 Nxe5 15.Bb5+ Kf8 16.Nxe5 Bxe2 17.Nd7+ Ke8
18.Nb8+ c6 19.Nd6+ Kf8 20.Nd7#

the game was played in a simultaneous exhibition.
