I'd call the near total destruction of the British 1st Airborne Division a defeat.

The Allies shifted all of their dwindling fuel resources to Market-Garden and all they ended up with was useless salient that had to be defended trench-warfare style.
The US First Army was then directed to support Monty's right flank. This led to the disastrous engagments in the Huertgen Forest and stalemate on the western front.
The breathing spell gave the Germans the space they needed to execute the Ardennes Offensive.
Market-Garden was no "minor tactical operation," either. It involved the entire Allied Airborne Army, and the British 30 Corps. It was a bold, if poorly thought-out, plan to turn the Siegfried Line and end the war in the fall of 1944.
