24... Kf7 25. Qxc7+ Re7 26. Qc8
the queen is now out of his defense! and I can now press my attack harder.

26... Bxg3
Taking the undefended knight...

 
27. Rxf4+ Bxf4
and I am now threatening Qxh2 . He has now 4 options 25. h3, 25. g3, 25. Qh3 and 25. Qf5 , which he does.

 
28. Qf5+ Qf6
Now that I have the positional advantage and that I have been able to get back even on the material front, the exchange of the queens is at my advantage (plus it is the only move that defends my bishop). The e pawn should be enough to give me the win.

 
29. Qh5+ Kg8
Now he has to be wary. If i move my bishop I can now checkmate with Qf1.

 
30. Qe2
Nice move by white, blocking the pawn in e3. My next move would have been e2.

 
30... Qh4 31. g3
g3 was the best move he could do. He sacrifices the pawn to get a little defense. After 31. ... Bxg3, white can't grab the e pawn with 32. Bxe3 because of 32. ... Rxe3 and the queen can't grab the rook because of the mate by the queen in h2. The queen needs to always keep an eye on h2.

 
31... Bxg3 32. Rb3
Rb3???? This move loses the game. He tries to overload my defense on the e pawn but...

 
32... Bf2
I simply protect it with my bishop, threatening Qe4 and the checkmate is close. White needs to place his queen in f1 in order to protect from the checkmate but white does not see the threat...

 
33. Bxe3
Precipitating his demise. Mate in two now...

 
33... Qe4+
He resigns, realizing the checkmate follows after 34. Qf3 Qxf3#. Still I think white's best defense was 33. Qf1 but after that I would simply played Re5 and Rh5 on order to submerge his tenuous defense. I am really proud of this game. I usually continue to play bad after an early blunder, but in this game I have been able to fight back and win. Hope you like it. Feedback is appreciated.
