d5..
b3 Qc6+
Don’t see any tactic. The position seems to be more or less equal.
After thinking for a few minutes im sure there’s no tactic and checked the engines… and they can’t find any either, in fact some give 1…h5 which Wang played.
So, are you sure you gave the correct game/position, Susan?
I think the move here is d5 with the idea of
1. … d5
2. cxd5 Qe4
3. f3/ Rg1/h2/h3 Rxd5
4. Rc1 which leaves a rather dominating position.
Alternatively 2.b3 is bad because
1. … d5
2. b3 Qc6!
3. cxd5 Bxd5
which black has a double threat on backrank and Rh1.
I’m doing this without an engine and have yet to be able to doublecheck my calculations…
