It's just luck. :)
Chepla sacrifices like mad to open up some lines to the enemy king. This sac
happens to be ok, but most of the time it will lose the endgame..

On ply 11 chepla thinks the best for white is :

Rxe5 dxe5 Qxe5 Kd7 d4 Bd6 Qxg7 exd5 Qxh8 dxc4 Qxh7

but the blacks next move Qe1 is checkmate :)
