Moral Victory

What is Moral Victory?


1.

A victory that occurs when a person, team, or army loses a confrontation yet achieves some other moral gain. This gain might be unrelated to the battle in question; however, the gain is often considerably less than what would have been accomplished if the main battle had been won; otherwise, the result would be characterized as either a "wash" or a proper victory.

A sports team that loses fairly to a cheating team might claim a moral victory in spite of the loss.

See moral, victory, winner, loser, victor
