antithesis

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'foil' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'a report about damaged tin' is the wordplay.
'report' becomes 'thesis' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'about' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'damaged' indicates an anagram.
'tin' with letters rearranged gives 'nti'.
'thesis' put after 'nti' is 'ntithesis'.
'a'+'ntithesis'='ANTITHESIS'
