Rescue one from dribbling (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

salvation

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

'rescue' is the definition.
(I know that salvation is a type of rescue)

'one from dribbling' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'one' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is located in the answer.
'from' could be 'in' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'in' is located in the remaining letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for salvation that I've seen before include "Deliverance (from sin)" , "Deliverance from evil" , "sanctuary" , "Christian body noted for social work and bands" , "Help" .)
