'Throw a game' = ném bỏ một trận đấu -> cố tình để thua một trận đấu do dàn xếp kết quả, thông đồng từ trước. Chúng ta thường hay biết đến hành vi này qua cái tên 'bán độ' trong thể thao.
Ví dụ
In a conversation with Yahoo! Sports, the former Artest shared a story of a gambler offering him a significant sum of money to throw a game.
In theory, major league players shouldn’t be susceptible (dễ bị ảnh hưởng) to bribery (mua chuộc) to throw a game because they’re paid well. According to Forbes, the minimum salary (lương) for Major League Baseball players is currently $555,000 a year. The Boston Herald says that Single A minor league players make as little as $2,000 per month. That’s $500 per week that’s only paid during baseball season.
“For us to throw a game and not want to win right before a knockout round is crazy,” the U.S. left back said at the team hotel Tuesday. “We want to win every game. There’s no better feeling than going into a knockout round coming off a big win, fingers crossed that obviously we can do that. But no one wants to lose a game and step into a knockout round where you are now in a have to survive moment. it would be crazy for us not to want to give our all and actually compete.
