Black threatens two multi-forks: 19...Nb4, attacking queen, bishop and a2 pawn, and 19...Ne3, attacking queen, queen's rook, f5 pawn and g2 pawn.
White has nothing better than 19.Qd2, which prevents 19...Nb4 but allows 19...Ne3?
However, this is a mistake, partly because, after 20.Rde1, Black is struggling to find a good continuation.
Stockfish16.1 and Dragon1 suggest 20...Bxf5 or 20...Nd5, but in each case give White the upper hand.
But what makes 19...Ne3? even worse is it misses winning a pawn by 19...Bxf5!
LESSON: beware focusing on just one aspect of a position, no matter how promising it seems at first.
