Result comes with player making catch (8)
I believe the answer is:
drawback
'catch' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'result comes with player' is the wordplay.
'result' becomes 'draw' (as in a draw between two opponents).
'comes with' says to put letters next to each other.
'player' becomes 'back' (I have seen 'defensive player' mean 'back' so perhaps 'player' could also mean 'back').
'draw'+'back'='DRAWBACK'
'making' is the link.
(Other definitions for drawback that I've seen before include "Obstacle" , "Hindrance - disadvantage" , "Hindrance - retreat" , "Catch" , "Limitation, disadvantage" .)
