Biden had a bad night but...

..it was strictly in terms of showmanship. Trump had a bad night because he didn't say anything that he hasn't already said, none of which speaks to definitive solutions the country's problems.

I wasn't counting lies or questions but each question would have had at least one lie.

I really only counted a couple President Biden mistakes. The insulin price deal (honest mistake) and the troop deaths (a little worse but I don't think intentional). Trump on the other hand is a professional liar, grifter, and criminal. Lying comes easy to him. I don't think intentional lying is easy for something with the morality of President Biden. He's a decent man. Trump is anything but.
