Abandon targets for rugby scores (4,5)

I believe the answer is:

drop goals

'rugby scores' is the definition.

'abandon targets' is the wordplay.
'abandon' becomes 'drop' (I've seen this before).
'targets' becomes 'goals'.
'drop'+'goals'='DROP GOALS'

'for' is the link.

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
