Problem #9

The position below was reached after 22. ... e4 in a 90+30 game on lichess (full game is below). Black played e5 to defend against Rd3+. A few people were spectating the game, and one user found, several minutes later, the best move that could have been played in this position. It's such an unexpected move that at first I thought the user was kidding...

The full game is available here (White missed the best move at move 23):
