Choice of words used by Lineker when admitting defeat (8)
I believe the answer is:
glossary
But I can't explain it at all! Could you help me understand?
(Other definitions for glossary that I've seen before include "Explanatory list of terms" , "one may see meaning here" , "A grossly distorted list of special words and definitions" , "List of technical terms in an appendix" , "List of words with meanings" .)
