1st step - Black queen from f3 to f5 check!.
If white pawn moves from e3 to e4 then black queen is moved from f5 to f3 and checkmate.
If white king moved from d3 to c3. Then we black queen is moved from f5 to c2 checkmate!!
Exactly, the key is the check on f5
Nice touch having it in both English and Spanish, that made the flow clear.
