Rodriguez Lopez,Rafael vs. Van der Hagen,Loek - Benidorm Open A 2024 0-1

In the game between Rafael Rodriguez Lopez and Loek Van der Hagen at the Benidorm Open A on October 30, 2024, the move Nf4+ played by White was a pivotal moment. This move, while developing a piece for more active play, overlooked the chance to threaten a critical position and missed an opportunity to capture an important outpost. Although it forced a response from the opponent's piece, it did not capitalize on the tempo advantage that could have been gained. Furthermore, this move failed to reveal an attack on a piece and did not take advantage of a potential forcing sequence that could have pressured Black. Overall, while Nf4+ contributed to White's piece activity, it was marked by several missed opportunities that could have altered the game's dynamics significantly.
