26... Rc3+
Forcing White to take his only option again!

 
27. Kg4
White's King has finally found some comrades to defend him.

 
27... Qxg2+
Black delivers the crushing blow. The only way White can defend is to sacrifice his Queen, and so he resigned. This was an exciting game all the way through. Even though it started very closed and positional, the end of the game was completely driven by tactics. White had a major attack, and Black's win ended up coming from a freak tactical sequence. This was a beautiful ending. 0-1
