this was a tough game! White got an annoying passed pawn in a difficult to break up pawn chain that I had to deal with. I was clawing to get the initiative but had to deal with a threatened rook on 7th attack which lead to a rook exchange and black going down a pawn. However, blacks dark squared bishop was able to post up and block the passed pawn. Whites king was not active enough and hampered by closed off files by the king side pawns supported by the bishop. There was not much white could do to stop this pawn push. The engine had it equal for longer than I thought but as time got low for white things got impossible.
A slow caro kann exchange leads to a great bishop and pawn endgame
