First always win

[dervast]

Hello,
I think there is a phrase that expresses that only the first/faster always wins/gets everything while the last or the latest always lose.

Could you please help me find out these phrase?

Best Regards
Alex

Maybe what you are looking for is one of the two following sentences:

1/ The winner takes it all, the looser has to fall.
2/ If you are first you are the first, if you are second you are nothing.
