Solution:
In Mamedyarov-Adams, 2017 it went 1.Nxf7 Qxf7 2.Bg6 Bf5 3.Bxf5 Nxb4 4.Qe4 Nd5 5.Be6 Qf6 6.Rxb8+ Rxb8 7.Qh7 g5 8.Qg8+ and Black resigned as he saw he would be mated after: 8...Ke7 9.Bf5+ Be5 10.Rxe5+ Kd6 11.Qxb8+ Nc7 12.Qb4+ c5 13.Qxc5# An important aspect to remember about this is how White kept the Black king from escaping to g8.
