I believe the answer is:

match

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'marriage' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Other definitions for match that I've seen before include "one's struck" , "Sporting event" , "An exact duplicate or a contest between two" , "Marriage; game" , "Correspondence" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
