Show answer & explanation

Answer: (D) C

Explanation

Statement A says full effort by all players guarantees a win; it does not say a win is possible only with full effort. Knowing the match was won therefore doesn't tell us whether all players gave their best (assuming so is the error of affirming the consequent), nor that some didn't. Neither conclusion definitely follows.
