White to play and win, what's your move?

That is an analasys board, not a puzzle

White: gxf7

Black: Qxf7 (if Kf8: Be7#; if Kh8: fxe8=Q# or fxe8=R#)

And with that...it's a dead draw. There is no way for either side to win, barring blunders. However, if there was no bishop (or if there was a safe way to sacrifice it) then white would win.

Even after I said the answer, people are telling different moves? To clear confusion, the answer in Bc7. Play it and give the engine 10 seconds to see it
