Foul defender and there's response (8)
I believe the answer is:
kickback
'there's response' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'foul defender' is the wordplay.
'foul' becomes 'kick' (type of football foul).
'defender' becomes 'back' (I've seen this before).
'kick'+'back'='KICKBACK'
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for kickback that I've seen before include "Underhand payment" , "(Illicit) confidential payment to facilitator" , "Forceful recoil" , "special gift" , "Bribe - recoil" .)
