Thread: вничью

Hi there,

I was reading a sports article the other day where I came across something along the following lines:
"...матч завершился вничью..."

Is it possible to say "...завершился ничьей..."?

What's the difference, in particular?

The match ended in a draw vs. The match ended with a draw? Same meaning, different wording?
As far as the content goes, I don't see a difference here.

It's the instrumental case in one case, and a "word" in another.

AFAIK it's only grammar difference, no difference in meaning

No diference. "вничью" is an adverb. The match ended "drawly" (if that makes sense in English).

Aight, thx for clarification!
