I did not analyze it with programs but it seems that
Fritz's blunder was in the following position:

[D]8/8/2K2kp1/7p/1P5P/4R3/8/2r5 w - - 0 55

Fritz played 55.Kb6 when it could get repetition of previous position in the
game by 55.Kd5

I guess that 55.Kd5 was enough for a draw when after 55.Kb6 the black
pawns(supported by the king) are stronger than the white rook.
