No 1 story from part of India (6)
I believe the answer is:
goalie
'part of india' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'no 1 story' is the wordplay.
'no g' becomes 'goa' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'story' becomes 'lie' (story can mean a fabrication).
'goa'+'lie'='GOALIE'
'from' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for goalie that I've seen before include "number one" , "Netkeeper, in short" , "Footballer" , "Soccer player who protects the target" , "Hart perhaps" .)
