My question is...This inner fire thing,
can you give me any good phrase or idiom to represent this whole sentence??
YaratutorThis sentence means that both the winner and the loser were 'fired up' about the whole game/contest/ etc.Actually, that's the term I was trying to locate in the back of my head, rather than 'heated up'.
It generally denotes that they both felt the same about the contest no matter the outcome.
