Nothing in game five, call for mark added to score? (5,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

viola clef

'mark added to score?' is the definition.
(symbol on sheet music)

'nothing in game five call' is the wordplay.
'nothing' becomes 'o' (looks like zero - 0).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'game' indicates an anagram (solving anagrams is a game).
'five'+'call'='fivecall'
'fivecall' anagrammed gives 'vilaclef'.
'o' put into 'vilaclef' is 'VIOLA CLEF'.

'for' is the link.
