The media is likely reporting incorrectly here. Apple has come out and stated that they view the judgement as a major win for their side and Epic has come out and said they intend to appeal. The cliff notes I've seen on why are that Apple is legally not a monopoly, does not have to provide an alternative payment processor 'in-app' and may still legally charge a commission fee on each purchase, even if completed through an external payment processor.

Apple has never been known to admit defeat. One can hardly go by their reactions as a barometer of how the case went.

Apple has not announced any intent to appeal.
