Huge fixture for Three Lions, say? (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
big game
'three lions say?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'huge fixture' is the wordplay.
'huge' becomes 'big' (similar in meaning).
'fixture' becomes 'game' (sporting fixture).
'big'+'game'='BIG GAME'
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for big game that I've seen before include "for those after a trophy?" , "Significant match" , "International?" , "Important match" , "supplier of trophies" .)
