Not so sure

The idea of whites Rook sacrifice , is to gain the Queen and Rook as Black has more pawns

Or,
2.Rd8+ Qxd8
3.Nxc6+ Kc7
4.Nxd8 Kxd8 and the two extra pawns should win.

I thought the solution was brilliant. The situation is Q & R vs N & R, a seemingly hopeless outcome for Black. But the position allowed Black to overcome the odds with Rd8+
