"Kill the clock" = diệt đồng hồ -> nghĩa là chiến thuật lui về bảo vệ sân nhà khi đã ghi được bàn thắng, chiến thuật câu giờ. 

Ví dụ
After that, the Browns spent their final timeout (giờ không tính) of the game and -- through some heroics by Henne -- eventually were able to kill the clock for the win. 

It stayed that way through regulation (sắp đặt) and, though the B’s were able to kill off a Grzelcyk hooking penalty taken with 1:24 left in regulation, they couldn’t get it to the shootout again. With the seconds ticking off the clock in OT, Charlie Coyle went to pin Severson up against the boards to kill the clock, but Severson made a nice backhand feed to a wide-open Sharangovic for the clean breakaway and goal.

However, it was sad to see Ryan Day lose his grip on the game in the second quarter. Getting the ball when OSU was down 18 points with a 1 minute, 43 seconds left in the half and playing to kill the clock, for fear Alabama would score again, was unjustifiable (vô lý).

Officials called for a review with 3 seconds left, as Stafford rushed to the line to spike the ball and kill the clock, and eventually determined Golladay's catch was called correctly on the field.
