1.bf8+! rxf8
2.rd3! and mate next move … (3.rh3#)
greetings, Vohaul
For extra marks, you shoul dknow it comes from a Polugayevsky game, where if memory serves me right, Polu played 1.e4 instead of his usual 1.d4.
1. Bf8 is the winning move. But it is mate in 4 because black has one useless interposition he can play.
1. Bf8+ Rxf8
2. Rd3 Be1
3. Rh3+ Bh4
4. Rxh4 mate
Bf8+ Rxf8
Rd3
