Was ahead after several games, needing extra time? Agreed (7)
I believe the answer is:
settled
'agreed' is the definition.
(something settled has been agreed)
'was ahead after several games needing extra time?' is the wordplay.
'was ahead' becomes 'led' (I've seen this before).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'several games' becomes 'set' (I've seen this before).
'needing' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'extra time?' becomes 't' (abbreviation. I am not sure about the 'extra' bit.).
'set'+'t'='sett'
'led' after 'sett' is 'SETTLED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for settled that I've seen before include "Came down; resolved" , "Agreed; sorted" , "no longer an issue" , "Resolved; calm" , "came to agreement" .)
