I don't know why you thought that you were losing. Material balance seems to be equal, your opponent's rooks are useless, and his queen doesn't seem to be dangerous for you. So you can bravely take his pawn with your rook, threatening mate in 1. If he tries to block your checkmate, you simply fork his king and rook. So simple. Your opponent didn't even have an extra piece. You had about 4,5 minutes to calculate all this sequence
How Do I Find Checkmate Sequences?

What you were afraid of when you thought you're losing? Or you simply didn't notice that rook capture?
Dfff
There's a way to find out if there's a win or isn't. And that way is to think and try to figure it out.
In the game above, the winning move (Rxc7) is pretty easy to find, and you still had 4:40 left. You spent 6 seconds on one move, then 5 seconds on another, and decided to escape to a draw. Why would you do that?

Dear mr. Arrozconpollo, if checkmate is too hard tactic for you, what about to start with forks? On moves 18 and 19 you blundered Nf3+ forking your king and queen. Until you stop lying to yourself things like “i am good at checkmatiing puzzles” you will never improve. Look at your puzzles statistics. You spent one minute solving puzzles in last 90 days! You have to solve puzzles at least 15-30 minutes EVERY DAY to start spotting tactics in your games.
By the way, there are many strategical advices, two of them are “rooks belong on seventh rank” and “allways look for captures”. Either one of them should lead player to move 30.Rxc7 even without thinking about checkmate.
For Mr. Stahl: it is allowed to spam forum like that Japanese individual did? This is utterly disgusting.
In this game I forced a draw because I thought I was losing but when I went to the analysis I had mate in 5, this has happened to me many times now, Ive tried checkmate puzzles and Im quiet good at them but the only reason for it is because I know i have checkmate but in real games I dont find them
