White played 60.Nf1 and black resigned. Black queen is trapped with no escape routes. If 60…Qf4, then white takes queen with 61.Qxf4. All other squares are well guarded with pawns and knight with some help from the white king at d1. Best try would be 60..c3, taking the white queen off from guarding the white pawn at g2.
