Goldbar won, so the names in the PGN are mixed up.
Baron had a somewhat worse position after the opening book, but managed to
improve its positions to where it had a superior knight against a pawnish
bishop. Unfortunately it saw a method to win a pawn after the exchange of these
two pieces, and it lost the resulting endgame as it had to sacrifice a rook for
a promoting pawn.
Coincidentally, the same type of endgame happened two rounds later again against
the King, this time the Baron managed to draw the game though.
