{C25 Vienna: Hammpe-Meitner}1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Bc5 3.Na4
I think you mean this game from 1870 and is a Vienna played in Vienna.
1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Bc5 3.Na4 Bxf2+ 4.Kxf2 Qh4+ 5.Ke3 Qf4+ 6.Kd3 d5 7.Kc3 Qxe4 8.Kb3
Na6 9.a3 Qxa4+ 10.Kxa4 Nc5+ 11.Kb4 a5+ 12.Kxc5 Ne7 13.Bb5+ Kd8 14.Bc6 b6+ 15.Kb5
Nxc6 16.Kxc6 Bb7+ 17.Kb5 Ba6+ 1/2-1/2
It is a very interesting game. Engines can't cope with this. I think that both
Kb4 and Kb5 are draws as amazing as it seems.
Very nice.
