Losing score in many a World Cup match crossword clue
4 Down · WSJ Crossword, November 13, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Losing score in many a World Cup match” is NIL. It appears as 4 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of November 13, 2026, a Friday puzzle titled “Elaboration” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 4 of the 21×21 grid.
The clue is a straightforward definition, so the answer is a direct synonym or a factual match for the words as written. The entry begins with N and ends with L, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Friday puzzles are the Journal’s contest crosswords with a hidden meta answer, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
