In Drills: Blunder + Stalemate ?

Sort:

Hello, I am new to chess so I am a bit confused about what was going on here:

Apparently I blundered and it was a stalemate, although I thought this was supposed to be a win.

Thanks in advance

No, when the enemy king has no legal moves but is not in check (and no other piece can move), then it's a stalemate.
