Foreign expat nobly yielding section of field (7,3)
I believe the answer is:
penalty box
'section of field' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'foreign expat nobly' is the wordplay.
'foreign' is an anagram indicator (foreign order of the letters).
'expat'+'nobly'='expatnobly'
'expatnobly' is an anagram of 'PENALTY BOX'.
'yielding' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for penalty box that I've seen before include "Spot container" , "area spotted?" .)
