Cork, perhaps; goalkeeper (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stopper

I believe this is a double definition.

'cork perhaps' is the first definition.
(I know that bottle cork is a type of stopper)

'goalkeeper' is the second definition.
(someone who stops goals)

(Other definitions for stopper that I've seen before include "Bung" , "Perhaps cork" , "Maybe cork" , "One blocks" , "Plug - cork" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
