the Hedgehog attack

2...d5 3.Nd2 dxe4 4.dxe4 Bc5 5.Ngf3 Nf6 6.Bd3 Nc6 7.a3! Ng4?
this is dubious [ somewhat better was for Black to complete his development 7...0-0 8.0-0 b6 9.Nb3 Be7 10.e5 Nd7 11.Qe2 Bb7 however White can create weakness with 12.Qe4 ]

8.0-0 Nce5 9.Nxe5 Nxe5 10.Bb5+ c6
[ better was 10...Bd7 ]

11.Ba4 Qh4 12.Qe2 Bd6 13.h3 f5
although this move seems aggressive, the eyes of a "tiger" were simply those of a kitten. After this waekening move, White's attack proceeds witrh logic and purpose.

14.Bb3 Qf4 15.g3 Qg5 16.Nc4 Qe7 17.Nxd6+ Qxd6 18.exf5 0-0 19.Rd1 Qc7 20.fxe6 Nf3+ 21.Kg2
[ 21.Qxf3? Rxf3 22.e7+ Be6! ]

21...Qe7 22.Rd7 Bxd7 23.exd7+ Qf7 24.Bxf7+
[ 24.Qxf3 is another way!]

24...Rxf7 25.Qe8+ 1-0
