Black has doubled whites pawns, but has lost a strong bishop. |

? Nxe4 was better, after which White has reasonable compensation. |

! White needs to drive the N off from defending the e pawn, after which a strong attack will ensue. |

Here White can afford to exchange rooks. |

After this move, White gets more than just the piece back. |
