With no defeats, two points sit between United and Spurs, remarkably (11)
I believe the answer is:
unsurpassed
'with no defeats two' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'points sit between united and spurs remarkably' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'points' could be 'ss' (an abbreviation for a compass point written twice) and 'ss' is found within the answer.
'united' could be 'u' (as in Man U, English football team) and 'u' is found within the answer.
'and' could be 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and') and 'n' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for unsurpassed that I've seen before include "Exceptional" , "Never bettered" , "without rival" , "Not exceeded" .)
