reflect well on ...
Hi everyone~!
I am wondering what the following sentence possibly means and in what situations it could be used.
Could it be possible as a thanking note to the movie film staff when a person(actor or director or...) win an award?
(In that case, I guess, it means like the award is a result of the staff's efforts.)
If anybody have an idea about them, would you give me a hand?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance!

Hi,
I was reading a topic of a forum on BBC sports this morning, and saw the following opinion.
e.g.
Don't think the scoreline reflected the gameplay and I'm really proud of my team - we are heading very much in the right direction
Here, the meaning of 'reflect', I mean if I
