This game was from a couple very young players. White took on f7 with the Rook and Black captured back with the King.
How should White continue?

Something wrong there!
White can pick up a rook with:
1. Bd5+ Ke7
2. Qb7+ Kf6
3. Qa6+ Ke7
4. Bxa8
Black won’t recapture because of Qb7+
This seems simple and direct and perhaps not the jewel of a tactic the position is hiding, but it’s a start.
Also maybe 1.Bd5+ Ke7 2.Rb1 !?
Is it enough?
“Something wrong there!”
Why?
