Medina Cruzata,Jose Miguel vs. Rigonati,Eduardo Enrico Santa - 2nd Sampa Rapid 2025 1-0

In the 2nd Sampa Rapid 2025 event on February 1, 2025, between Medina Cruzata (white) and Rigonati (black), the move Bxg7 was played by White. This pawn sacrifice threatens to gain material control over a crucial point, as it occupies an important outpost on the board. By doing so, White also misses the opportunity to reveal an attack on one of Black's pieces, potentially gaining a strategic advantage. However, the move allows for Eduardo Rigonati (Black) to prepare a counter-attack and kick White's pawn off the square. This pawn development does not seem to be part of any larger plan as White had other better options to develop their piece.
