no title

this is from an otb tournament game i should have lost. seeing as it's not composed there may be flaws, and as black played imperfectly i give you his moves:
...Kf8
...Qf3+
#

white to play, wins in 3


probably not hard as a puzzle, but it was a very exciting endgame 🙂

edit: oops, forget to title the thread!

That was far from an immediate win, but according to the moves you gave, I expect the last move was Rg2#

yes, that's right, by that i suppose you must have figured the preceding moves as well.

edit: as the mate must be discovered

1.Rxg7+ 1.Kf8
2.Re1g1 2.Qf3+
3.Rg1g2 then 3.Bxg2! is not mate i think.

sorry if i'm missing something.
