Won on paper

When someone wins even though the other side of the conflict won.

Vietnam won on paper.

Great on Paper Couple

NOUN: When 2 people seem like a perfect match: they have a lot in common, are both attractive, have mutual friends...just no sexual chemistry.

I set up my cousin and my best friend, but it turns out they are just a Great on Paper Couple. Too bad, because I think they're perfect for each other and it would really work out for me.
