Of course, it's just a sporting cliche

Like 110% effort, or left everything on the pitch

A must-win game is (almost invariably) simply a very important game to win

        I don't know why you're all wasting your breath on this. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Apr 13, 17:17:12
        
        which is maybe why tomorrow is a must win? (NCFC) - SCC 28, Apr 13, 17:41:14
        
        You don't understand. We *drew* a *must-win*. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Apr 13, 17:45:07
        
        you seem to take 'must win' literally (NCFC) - SCC 28, Apr 13, 18:00:19
        
        without wishing to get involved, there's not really much ambiguity to "must-win" (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Apr 13, 18:02:48
        
        if you take everything literally yes (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Apr 13, 18:09:20
        
        er, so you're saying that "must-win" is actually "would be very useful to win" (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Apr 13, 18:12:05

        Please don't agree with my posts, it makes me feel dirty (NCFC) - Old Git, Apr 13, 18:23:18
        
        haha you started it (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Apr 13, 18:23:59
        
        You love it when I agree with your posts (NCFC) - Old Git, Apr 13, 18:25:01
        
        agreed (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Apr 13, 18:25:34
        
        how shall we differentiate them from real 'must-win' games? (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Apr 13, 18:20:35
        
        nothing else but a win will do games (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Apr 13, 18:23:42
        
        By the application of common sense (n/m) (NCFC) - Old Git, Apr 13, 18:23:40
        
        you're asking a lot of some people there (n/m) (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Apr 13, 18:24:51
