Both of them weren't on their peak. Some of their techniques were/are still new to them and both of the were exhausted of their previous fights against Obito, Madara, and Kaguya. And yes Sasuke gets easier exhausted than Naruto because he doesn't have as much chakra as Naruto.

When they started their fight both were equal. And the intention of killing somebody or not is actually irrelevant in this fight because both of them wanted to win this fight and if Sasuke's had won he then would have killed Naruto. (And Naruto also used techniques which could kill a normal person - Bijuu Dama, Rasenshuriken, TSB Rasenshuriken,....). Both defended every technique the other used.......

Sasuke only absorbed the chakra from the Bijuus to be superior to Naruto, which he actually was as seen when his new Susanoo easily defended every technique Naruto used. ( Sasuke then did something which in my opinion is completely stupid. He takes his superiority in this case nearly all of his chakra and puts all of it into a technique. He could have stayed in this new Susanoo and just fight with Naruto. ) Sasuke then used nearly all of his chakra to perform Indra's Arrow and in order to counter this technique Naruto needed to absorb as much natural energy as possible and he used nearly all of his chakra to create his 2 strongest techniques. So 1 Indra Arrow = 1 Rasenshuriken + 1 TSB Rasenshuriken (with elemental bonus because wind is superior to lightning)

Later than both of them were equally strong again. But actually Base Sasuke (sasuke with sharingan) is stronger than base Naruto (naruto + uzumaki chakra) because he would have killed Naruto with his chidori. His Sharingan deactivated itself before his chidori could hit Naruto and so he couldn't predict Naruto's movements. At the end both were unconscious and this ended their fight. Only because Naruto woke up earlier doens't mean he won. Sasuke admitted his defeat so they could stop now and it was more like Naruto's ideals won against Sasuke's ideals and not that Naruto actually WON this fight. It was a stalemate.

At the end this is not the "perfect last battle" between the two. Both are still not on teir peak and were weakened. If they were both equals, why was Naruto having more disadvantages against Sasuke? Fighting to kill makes all the difference, and Naruto had zero killing intent. And Naruto was exhausted from the war, while Sasuke was not.
