Question about the Budapest Gambit

Sort:
Head_Hunter

I was watching this video on the Budapest Gambit. Now, I'm nowhere near a grandmaster, but I disagree with the recommendation of the lecturer in the position below. The GM lecturer (I won't reveal his name) recommends starting the combination with 4...Bxf2+. I would play 4...Ne4 in this position; it looks like this move wins a piece outright.  What's wrong with my assessment?

After 4...Ne4 5.Be3 Bxe3 6.fxe3 Qh4+ 7.g3 Nxg3 8.Nf3, black doesn't win a piece as far as I can see
