[edit] King's Gambit Declined
Black develops its dark-squared bishop, it controls the d4 square and make it harder for white to castle kingside.
White cannot accept the pawn and play 3. fxe5 Because of 3...Qh4+ leading to the loss of a rook. The main continuation is 3. Nf3, but 3. Bc4 looks good too.
