In which sense is '(to) tend' a synonym of '(to) run'? The sense of "managing"?

"Which is NOT a match synonym?"
Whereas in the entry for "match", "derby" is not listed, in the entry for "derby" (https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-thesaurus/derby), "match" is listed.
And as far as I know the words can be used interchangeably in the sense of "competition".

"Which of these words is a synonym of credit?"
The answer is "accolade". (https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-thesaurus/accolade) It's entry in the dictionary says "ovation" would be a synonym of "ovation" (and vice versa: https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-thesaurus/ovation)
So why shouldn't "ovation" be a synonym for "credit"?

I don't get at all how "lean" and "count" should be interchangeable.
The entry for "count" doesn't link to "lean" (https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-thesaurus/count), nor does the article for "lean" link to "count". (https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english-thesaurus/lean)
