Bxe4 Ra7 {Black's position does not look too bad, since White does not have much attacking force on the kingside. But since Qf5 will threaten mate (Qxh7+ and Qh8 mate), Kasparov sets up a double attack.} 22. Nc8 {The knight cannot be captured because then Qf5 will attack the rook and also threaten mate at h7.} 22... Nc6 23. Nxa7 Nxa7 24. Bd5 { Black resigned, because if 24...Rf8, then 25.Rb7 is deadly.} 1-0
