Right moves for the solution to the easy chess puzzle 0076
Based on the objective of the puzzle, you have to make the right moves. Following are the right moves
- Rd8+, Rxd8#
Explanation for the moves
- Rd8+ - You can have a mate from d8. But d8 is guarded by the opponent’s queen. Your rook sacrifices itself for a checkmate in next move. With this move, your rook forks opponent’s king and queen
- Qxd8 - Opponent’s king can not capture your rook because it is in battery formation with another rook. So opponent’s queen captures Your rook
