France goalie, beaten, leaves (7)
I believe the answer is:
foliage
'leaves' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'france goalie beaten' is the wordplay.
'france' becomes 'f'.
'beaten' indicates an anagram (letters beaten up or destroyed).
'goalie' with letters rearranged gives 'oliage'.
'f'+'oliage'='FOLIAGE'
(Other definitions for foliage that I've seen before include "Greenery, leaves of trees or plants" , "Leaves of tree or plant" , "Cluster of leaves" , "Green leaves" , "Mass of leaves" .)
