I see no way black is winning this game. Move the knight from b3 to d4 then black king can only move to to d5 or E5 or d7 in which case the queen locks it down

Lol I didn't see that it's not a queen, let me re analyze it

Hmm. I can't pierce how to checkmate the king in two moves, three maybe. There are lots of variables on that board

Solution

Rook to g4,black king has only two safe squares,which are king to d7 or f7
If black decides to play d7,then Knight to c5 boom checkmate!!
If black decides to play f7,then bishop to c4 mate!!
Either way mate in 2.
