Excellent job by lastpawnstanding taking me out.

Instead of 40.f4, it looks as though 40. Rb6 might be stronger with the idea of Ra6-Ra8. Edit: Then again the black pawns just come down like space invaders, so forget that idea! After g5+ Kg7 and d2 followed by c3 look very strong. Anyway nice checkmate 🙂

You think White could force a checkmate on move 46? How so?

*EDIT* Oh I see. You missed Kxf4.
