In the question below, choose the expression or word which best completes each sentence:

jamb 1983english-language

The correct answer is B. lost

In the given sentence, the word that best completes it is "lost. "

This is because "lost" is the past tense form of the verb "lose," which accurately describes the team's outcome in the match.

The other options, such as "to lose," "will be losing," "losing," and "loosen," do not fit grammatically or contextually in this sentence.
