The final goal (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

end

This clue is a double definition.

'the final' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'goal' is the second definition.
(both can mean a purpose)

(Other definitions for end that I've seen before include "Finish, wind up" , "scrap" , "border?" , "Bring to a close" , "target" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
