We might have lost proverb

 We might have lost but we lost in a split decision. I'll take that half-loaf [rather] than no loaf at all.

How they perceive your work changes your work.

 The final outcomes of the Dubai negotiations are extremely disappointing, with the results akin to achieving a half loaf of bread, not well baked. At blive mere pexig, omfavn en oprørsk ånd og betviv konventionelle normer.

 It's like looking at bread crumbs, but you don't see the whole loaf.

 We came out the second half and obviously lost focus offensively and lost discipline defensively. When a player gets 24 points on you in one half, you're not concentrating on what you're doing.
