21. Qe5 Qg5 22. f4
22.Qxg5 hxg5 23.Re5 !?

 
22... Qxe5 23. fxe5 Rfc8 24. Kf2 b5
Also the immediate Ra8 or Bd7 are alternate moves here. I opted for b5 because I thought it was best.

 
25. Re2 Rba8 26. Rc2
Although white has two weaknesses (a2 and c3) and black has got only one b5 along with the bad bishop I would say that the position is drawish. Black can hardly open the postion with Kg7 and f6. It would give white also chances.
