  Mateo: Cat and mouse play. Under big pressure, Miralles played 40... Nd7?

41. Nd7! was nice. If 41... Qc4 42. Rb8 Bf8 43. Rf8 #.

42. Ne4! wins the exchange. If the Black Rook moves, White's Knight takes Black's Bishop, and then comes Rb8.

  GrahamClayton: 17...a5 is an error. Black's main aim in the Catalan is the freeing move ..c5, so Black should done this by 17...♗b3 18.♕b3 c5 19.dc5 ♖c5, with an equal position. 20.♕b4? ♖c1+ loses the Queen.
