    This study analyzed how cooperation-opposition sports games (COSG) influence emotional experiences and the perception of cheating among university students in Physical Activity and Sports Sciences. The aim was to examine the impact of the outcome (victory or defeat) and competition on emotions and moral judgments regarding deviant motor behaviors, to inform Physical Education teaching. A total of 231 students participated (Women: M = 21.50, SD = 1.98; Men: M = 21.76, SD = 2.79) in a quasi-experimental design. After six COSG sessions with and without competition, participants completed the GES-II questionnaire (emotional perception) and CONFLICT-1 AGE (perception of the agent generating motor conflict), generating 1,386 records. Non-parametric tests were used for analysis. Results showed that victory was associated with joy and greater justification of one's own cheating, whereas defeat triggered anger and sadness, along with a stronger perception of injustice regarding others' actions. A discrepancy was also observed between self-perception of cheating and attribution to others, particularly after losing. It is concluded that Physical Education should incorporate strategies that promote reflective emotional development and a critical understanding of fair play.
