Clever play by both on move 31. It seems as though Black can win immediately with Qf8 staying on the rook on f1, but White has Ne4!! (it’s probably better that this finish didn’t happen).
Hence 31 … Qxg6!? protecting e4 but abandoning the threat to the rook – a good enough move, however the computer has spotted that after Qf5! instead, both functions are retained and justice is served. Very logical – why didn’t the humans just think about it logically.. Qf8 looks the natural move to consider though, as the queen is protected there, I'd have probably banged it er, played that myself.
