Loses car in game (8)
I believe the answer is:
lacrosse
'in game' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'loses car' is the wordplay.
'loses car' anagrams to 'LACROSSE'.
But, I am not clear how the anagram is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lacrosse that I've seen before include "Score's uncertain after the Spanish" , "Game played with a netted stick" , "Like thirteen of the other clues in the French" , "Ball game using netted stick" , "Game played with nets on sticks" .)
