Engineers union in another meeting (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rematch

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'another meeting' is the definition.
(an additional match or meeting)

'engineers union' is the wordplay.
'engineers' becomes 're' (Royal Engineers).
'union' becomes 'match' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
're'+'match'='REMATCH'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rematch that I've seen before include "Later encounter" , "Teams' second game" , "Return fixture" , "Another game" , "Further engagement of the same contestants" .)
