10 hrs confidence:
to retaliate or to take revenge Explanation: It's human nature. We normally don't like to be defeated, and we seek revenge from those who hurt us even though we're not in the battlefield. Therefore, I think it's appropriate to translate it into "to retaliate or to take revenge" because our intention of repeating playing a game is to win and make up for our loses. |
