Change of direction in match (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

right

This might be a double definition.

'change' is the first definition.
(right is a kind of change)

'direction in match' is the second definition.
'right' can be an answer for 'direction'. I'm not sure about the 'in match' bit.

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for right that I've seen before include "Prerogative" , "Spot-on" , "It's what you deserve" , "Sound" , "Fitting; entitlement" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
