Verb

[edit]

sabotage (third-person singular simple presentsabotages,present participlesabotaging,simple past and past participlesabotaged)

To deliberately destroy or damage something in order to prevent it from being successful.
The railway line had beensabotaged by enemy commandos.
Our plans weresabotaged.
- 2014 October 18,Paul Doyle, “Southampton hammer eight past hapless Sunderland in barmy encounter”, inThe Guardian‎^[1]:
  Five minutes later, Southampton tried to mount their first attack, but Wickhamsabotaged the move by tripping the rampagingNathaniel Clyne, prompting the referee,Andre Marriner, to issue a yellow card. That was a lone blemish on an otherwise tidy start byPoyet’s team – until, that is, the 12th minute, whenVergini produced a candidate for the most ludicrous own goal in Premier League history.
- 2021 December 29, Drachinifel, 21:03 from the start, inThe USN Pacific Submarine Campaign - The Dark Year (Dec'41 - Dec'42)‎^[2], archived fromthe original on19 July 2022:
  The only amusing highlight wasGudgeon having managed to exploit U.S. codebreaking efforts to ambush and destroy the submarineI-173, albeit not for the lack of the Mark 14's trying tosabotage the effort, as the torpedo that hadhit the sub had refused to detonate; it seemed, however, that the car-crash levels of kinetic energy involved in the dud simplyramming the sub had nonetheless done enough to fatally damage it.
