A victory can be hollow if the reason for the victory would have made no difference to the overall outcome. An example of this would be the Nazis victory at the Battle of the Bulge. Their victory was in a way a Pyrric victory as they pretty much won their objectives which was to force the Allies back and gain a chance to get a quick victory for morale but in doing so, they lost much of their tank and artillary which led to a faster advance across Europe by the Allies.
