失利

The team’s defeat is a salutary warning before the World Cup.

这次失利是在世界杯比赛之前对整队有警示。

Our defeat in last week’s game is down to the goalkeeper,who played very badly.

我们上周比赛失利归咎于守门员，他表现得太糕了。

This one defeat was the only hiccup in the team’s steady progress up the League.

这次失利只是球队在朝联赛稳步前进道路上小挫折。
