Well this is a battle. We are not talking about the secret goal of Itachi. What if Itachi killed Sasuke though Sasuke didn't kill him are you saying he lost the battle. I don't think so. Your going to deep into it. Sasuke couldn't defeat nor kill Itachi and Itachi could've done both but his disease caught up with him. Itachi's intention for Sasuke to win and become a hero failed as he did neither.
