La réponse en bref
How smart people say "we lost" after a game
Use "We came up short." when you want to say "we lost" honestly and calmly.

Comprendre chaque réplique
-
We'll get them next time. Ton: Hopeful and friendly
Use it to cheer up a teammate right after a loss. "Them" means the other team. Don't say it to the other team's players, because it can sound like a threat.
“We'll get them next time.”
-
We gave it our best shot. Ton: Kind and proud
Say it when the team tried hard, even though the result was bad. It sounds strange if the team clearly didn't try.
“Yeah. Well, we gave it our best shot.”
-
We came up short. Ton: Honest and calm
"Came up short" means you were not quite good enough to win. It works after games, and also at work when a team misses a goal. It's a neutral line, so it fits a coach, a captain, or a short report.
“But at the end of the day, we came up short.”
-
It just wasn't our day. Ton: Light and accepting
Use it when luck or small things went wrong. Don't use it when the other team was much stronger, because it can sound like an excuse.
-
They were the better team today. Ton: Fair and respectful
Use it to give credit to the winners. "Today" keeps the door open for next time. It's a good line for talking to the other team or to fans.
-
Good game, everyone. Ton: Friendly and sporting
Say it to both teams at the end, win or lose. People often shorten it to "Good game." Avoid it if you sound sarcastic or upset when you say it.
