"As good as gone" -> nghĩa là dù theo chiều hướng nào, cũng gần như là/không thể tránh khỏi (việc) mất mát, chết.

Ví dụ
They approach the petite (xinh xắn) blonde (em tóc vàng), point to the Big Buck Hunter video game in back, and lay down $20. Their money is as good as gone. "Crushes them every time," smiles Jerad Erlandson, who owns Clyde's Corner with the blonde in question – who also happens to be his wife.

Make no mistake, Newcastle United are in a relegation battle (vòng loại), and judging by their meek surrender to Leicester, they are as good as gone already. Replacing world-class coach and tactician (chiến lược gia) Rafael Benitez with Steve Bruce always looked like a huge gamble by Mike Ashley, and it doesn’t look likely to pay off.

If Silva manages to lose the first two encounters (trận đấu), he is as good as gone. These will be tough outings, but outings they can turn in their favour no doubt.
