13... Qe7 14. Nce5 Nxe5 15. Nxe5 Bh5
I would prefer bf5 so i coudnt play bd3. I think this diagonal is more interesting.

 
16. Bd3
Now i cant play my bishop in a nice diagonal. Bc4 is a good move as well.

16... f6
He weaken his kingside but he was scared about my knight

 
17. Ng6 Bxg6 18. Bxg6 f5
He is trying to capture my bishop with queen g5. I have 2 choices h4 to h5 or retreat my bishop. The second option is more solid.

 
19. Bh5 Qg5
Attacking the bishop and g2 at the same time but there is not a problem

 
20. Bf3 c6
His knight is dangerous i cant kick it because f5 is covering e4 and it starts to be dangerous, so i wanna change my worse bishop to his good knight.

 
21. O-O
First i wanna be safe.

 
21... Qf6
He is preparing f4 i dident realise it will be a great problem for me.

 
22. Bxd5 exd5
Good idea capturing with e pawn because if he opens c file i ve a good counterplay.

 
23. Qd3
I was thinking in b4,b5 (minor attack) and put a tower in c5 but the good next move it will let me busy.

 
23... f4
i didnt like exf4 because i didnt want my d pawn isolated.

 
24. b4
I need counterplay fast

 
24... f3
Of course not fxe3 and im fine

 
25. g3
Now his plan will be checkmate me maneuvering his queen first and after this the tower.

 
25... Qe6
I had 2 option to defend. king h1 and tower g1 to cover g2 or move my tower and queen f1 to cover g2.

 
26. Rfd1 Rf5
He want to attack my weak king in the h file.

 
27. b5
I ve to do something really fast or i will die.

 
27... Rh5 28. Qf1
He will need more time to checkmate me. I will try to create more counterplay while he is attacking me

 
28... Rf8 29. bxc6 bxc6 30. Rc5
My idea was capture the pawn with my tower and trying to sidetrack his attack

 
30... Rh3 31. Rxc6
Not the best move but maybe annoy a bit. If he takes my tower i take his tower and im better.
