As far as material goes, Black is not bad off, for two minor pieces should be able to put up a good fight against a Rook and two pawns. Positionally his game is a wreck; every pawn is weak. The technical phase really falls outside our province, but we give it in brief for the sake of completeness} 30. Rbc1 Be7 31. R1c7 a5 32. Rd7 Bb4 $1 33. Rcc7 Rxd7 34. Rxd7+ Ne7 35. Kg2 Kf6 36.
