Attempt to score in a game? (3)
I believe the answer is:
try
This clue could be a double definition.
'attempt to' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in other clues)
'score in a game?' is the second definition.
'try' can be an answer for 'score'. I am not sure about the 'in a game?' bit.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for try that I've seen before include "A rugby score, result of effort" , "Examine" , "Endeavour" , "Bid" , "Four rugby points" .)
