Further - For Tomorrow showed that Diana was clearly a much more skillful combatant, but that superman was much faster and a bit stronger - which is entirely true. Wonder Woman's speed isn't even comparable to Clark's.
Sacrifice sat there and tried to pretend that Superman was nothing but slightly stronger - entirely inaccurate. It even portrayed a Wonder Woman that was holding back as faster and better in a slugfest than a Superman that was completely bloodlusted.
A Superman that's completely bloodlusted shouldn't have been much more than a blur to Diana.
Did we read the same Sacrifice?
There was no skill from WW in For Tomorrow. Kicking someone in the gut =/= skill.
WW in Sacrifice actually bothered to attack Clark's joints and other weak spots because she can't clearly can't just wrestle with him as she tried to do in For Tomorrow. She used her tiara and her animal powers to distract Clark. She was actually thinking there.
Superman was not slightly superior. He KO'd her in one hit. Easily froze her with ice breath. Easily burned her face. His physical advantage was anything but slight.
And I assume he let her go in For Tomorrow because that's clearly what your scan showed.
