solution
1… Qxg2 2. Kxg2 Nf4+ 3. Kg1 Nh3#? Nice queen sacrifice
Sorry for the ignorance but I’m not familiar with the shorthand. What is Nf4+ & Nh3#
N = Knight, F4 = square moved to, + = opponent King in check, # = Opponent King in Checkmate
Algebraic notation
Wouldn’t the bishop just take the knight?
The king is in check so that isn’t an option.
I overlooked the black bishop in that play. My mistake!
Double check!
