1...Rxb2!! 2.Nxb2 c3 3.Rxb6 (or 3.Nd3 c4+ 4.Rxb6 cxd3 etc.) 3...c4! This move,
and the next, are not obvious at all. 4.Rb4 a5! (The crux of the combination
and, as Sanz later said, the most difficult move to find) 5.Nxc4 c2 and black
won in a few more moves.

So does Fritzy find 1...Rxb2!! (very likely) but more importantly,
3...c4!
and 4...a5!

let's see.
