L knew he was kira the whole time (at that point imo he won)
also, light had a God, a death note, 2 women devoted to helping him so much that they’d kill themselves for the cause and full access to police info
L had a few barely useful detectives as help, a hidden identity i guess, full access to police info and fbi at the start.
L wins in raw intelligence and won considering the circumstances and how near led of his work and eventually beat him

L found out that light was kira but noone believed him, and he literelly died and still they didn't thought tht light was kira.
In other words it was a perfect victory
For The god of new world
Kira

Technically, neither won BUT L contributed to overall victory of his team in the future.
The only true winner was Ryuk tho.

L had to be smarter for the sake of the plot.

Light won and then Near carried out L's will (as well as Mello's I guess).

Light’s goal was to become the god of the new world. L’s goal was to kill or capture Kira. In that sense, I think that L won

but light made the world a better place, by killing tons of people.

I guess that’s a huge argument. Few people that light is correct and a few think he’s wrong. I personally think he’s wrong as he was killing criminals that didn’t deserve to die sometimes. Idk if your comment was supposed to be sarcastic lmao so I apologise if I have a serious response for no reason.

While light did go off track, his his goal was on mark. Crime was completely gone and criminals were whimpering in hiding, wars stoped, was even slowly getting rid of the lazy freeloaders (while some say this was a bit excessive, fact is freeloaders are bad for society so it might be wrong morally, society would benefit. Not endorsing it, but cant fully be against it either.)

I support Kira not light himself who grew corrupt.

L losing to Light was just like Itachi losing to Sasuke, if you've watched that episode closely.. L knew he was gonna get killed and Light also realised that and was stunned
So L died physically but won mentally
