Feel sentence provides a boundary (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

touchline

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

'a boundary' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both locations as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'feel sentence' is the wordplay.
'feel' becomes 'touch' (touching is a kind of feeling).
'sentence' becomes 'line' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'touch'+'line'='TOUCHLINE'

'provides' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for touchline that I've seen before include "side of pitch" , "Rugby/soccer pitch marking" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
