I am not 100% sure either, there are many options for both sides to have
a "proof" without a serious analysis. However, White is in deep trouble. After
Kg1 some options to consider are
2...Ba3,
2...Nh2 (keeping the king trapped),
2...Nd2!? 3.Bxd2 Bc5 4.Kf1? Rh8 (now the escape is closed) etc.
These are just ideas, it is not simple IMHO. Each variation has lots of
sub-branches.

Regards,
Miguel
