there is no Knight that can reach f6 for white and if you meant Rook takes f6+ then after your last move Ne8+ then it is not mate King can go back to f5...could try:)

Namib if in move 1. you meant Rxf6+ then that does kinda save the game for white. It can lead to threefold repetition since after 3.e8=N+ then king goes back to f5 and then Nd6+ and king has to go back to f6 and can keep checking but there is a mate for white.
