Castling like a Boss

Some older stuff, however, a nice memory. Facing the London system against a strong FM in the league in 2013 was an unforgettable experience that I’d like to share with you.

The game:

castling, of course, is wonderful — worthy of both attention and praise. the game, too: tense and interesting. it is unclear, however, how such a strong player could have made mistakes on move 20 and especially on move 35 — simply walking right into a mating net. he couldn't have missed it. moreover, that somewhat strange 28th move by black, which significantly complicated the conversion of the advantage. for a weak player like me sitting at the board, of course, it would be impossible to find these mistakes, but they too make an impression — no less than the brilliant castling.

Thx. It‘s not as easy as the engine indicates, e.g. the sequence in move 28 given is quite complicated. And then there is the clock...
