Cup match result before penalty shoot-out? (3)
I believe the answer is:
tie
I believe this is a double definition.
'cup match' is the first definition.
'result before penalty shoot-out?' is the second definition.
(a penalty shoot out resolves a tie)
(Other definitions for tie that I've seen before include "Draw; link" , "Join, link" , "Fasten, link to" , "Equality of score" , "Neck-cloth" .)
