My first Smothered mate, Queen sac!
For a change, it is nice to see Black executing these smooth, smothered moves. Well done ! Congrats !!!

Yeah, It could not have happened without f4??
After 15.Nxe7 Qxe7 16.f4 0-0 17.fxe5 dxe5 18.d6! white is better, but you did well to spot his premature weakening of the diagonal and exploit it. 17.Bh4 Bxh4 18.Qxg4! would've kept white alive as well.
Brilliant!
