It was in the annotated game...  here it is again:

here are the two pvs, for O-O (which crafty hated) and
for f5, which is what it would have played:
  8.   Ng5   O-O
                {8:-2.14 O-O Qe4 Bf2+ Kd1 Qxg5 Bxg5 b5 Nf6+ gxf6 Bxf7+
Rxf7}
                {8:+5.74 f5 Nf7 Kxf7 Nxc7+ d5 Bxd5+ Kg6 Nxa8 Bf2+ Kd1
Qxd5}
