I cannot see what white gained by moving his rook to g1 and leaving his white bishop as a sacrifice. The move to Bd6 is curious as well. I can see the potential of the fork coming, but the rook at a1 is captured. After going through the rest of the scenario, it was deceptively brilliant on WHITE's part for the Queen sacrifice to set position for checkmate. Good game Curious game.
