I missed that the pawn on a2 was heading towards a1!

That is part of the flipped board ploy. Your mind flips the board but has trouble doing the same with the pawn directions wink.png

Yes it is flipped but it is wrong.

Many things are wrong in the world. What are you referring to?

This puzzle is more of a trick since faridmusayev didn't mention if en passant is legal in this position...

Oh see it now. Tricky tricky.

the position that FaridMusayev showed is impossible in a real chess game because only one pawn was traded, but white has 2 doubled pawns in the center

Yes, but that is not a new observation as you can read throughout the thread.

It is mate in two, not one

There is no checkmate in one. You have to give the previous move to show en passant. It is a trick.
