Kurt showed some analysis by Yace, which choses Qe3+ soon. When I force
47...Qe3+ 48. Qxe3 fxe3+ 49. Kxe3, it goes to draw score pretty soon, however.
The shown line starts with 49...a5 {as in the game, you posted} 50. Nd3.
After the game move, 50. Nc6, the score rises for black.

After Nd3 instead, a few minutes of search doesn't show anything besides draw
score.

Can you suggest a line after Nd3?
