"A kick at the can" = cú đá vào chiếc can -> ý chỉ một cơ hội để thử và đạt được một điều gì đó.

Ví dụ
It was the final kick at the can for our team and it was the best swim that the girls have had all year.

Jackson and Williams are both back for another kick at the can in 2019, while Morris is recovering (phục hồi) from an Achilles heel (gót chân) injury (chấn thương) in last year’s West Final.

Christine Sinclair had just completed taking part in her fifth World Cup, so it is too early to decide whether she will be back for another kick at the can in four years.

Right after the Calgary Stampeders won the 2018 Grey Cup, the receiver openly acknowledged (thừa nhận) that he was contemplating (dự định) retirement and might not return for another kick at the can.
