Right English striker for return game (7)
I believe the answer is:
rematch
'return game' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'right english striker' is the wordplay.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'striker' becomes 'match' (a match can be struck).
'r'+'e'+'match'='REMATCH'
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for rematch that I've seen before include "Return fixture" , "Teams' second game" , "Later encounter" , "new bout" , "Further engagement of the same contestants" .)
