Apr-04-04  MoonlitKnight: This has three possible explanations:

1) The moves are wrong (Andersson might have played 43.Be3)

2) Polugaevsky was running out of time (hence playing 42.Rxa3??) and Andersson played 43.Qc3 just to rub it in.

3) Polugaevsky was really poor at tactics.

Yes, the moves are wrong. Andersson played 43. Be3. In his comments, he gives an exclamation mark to 43. Be3! and adds : if 43... Re3 44. Qf7.
