'Late in the day' = vào cuối ngày -> đã quá muộn để đưa ra thêm quyết định, hành động hay thay đổi dự án hay hành động nào đó vì nó đã được hoàn thành xong khá nhiều

Ví dụ
Her family had called around frantically (điên cuồng) on Monday, she said, only to learn late in the day that her sister was below deck when the fire broke out and did not survive.

Lawmakers in Britain's lower house of Parliament voted late in the day to approve (chấp thuận) legislation designed to prevent Prime Minister Boris Johnson's government from taking the country out of the European Union without a deal.

The agency informed the court that although it had formally arrested the accused, it was constrained (miễn cưỡng) to move the application for judicial custody as it was too late in the day and the ED required time to move the plea for custodial interrogation (chất vấn).

A number of pro-democracy lawmakers also hit out at Lam’s response as being too late to do any good. “There is no way that the people of Hong Kong are going to buy these fake goods which don’t quite pass muster, coming as late in the day as they do,” Democratic Party lawmaker Wu Chi-wai told RFA. “The pan-democratic camp (trại dân chủ) and the Democratic Party will continue to support the five demands (yêu sách) [of the anti-extradition movement],” Wu said.
