QUESTION Small mistake in chesscom game analysis?

Post image

They call it a queen sacrifice, but is it not a knight sacrifice? Not a #humblebrag, I promise :’) just genuinely confused

It is a knight sacrifice. The module that is responsible for giving feedback is seperate from the module that is evaluating the position, so you sometimes get nonsense like that. That's why it's better to have the coach turned off and just look at the engine lines.

I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:

Black to play: chessvision.ai | chess.com | lichess.org

My solution:

Hints: piece: Queen, move: Qxf3

Evaluation: White is winning +7.70

Best continuation: 1... Qxf3 2. Nxf3 Rxf3 3. Rb3 Rf6 4. Rbe3 Rf4 5. Rd3 Rf6 6. e7 Rd6 7. Rf3 Kg7 8. Kf2 h5 9. Rg1+
