9a President's first word of hesitation during extra part of speech (8) ?O?P???E

24a Arsenal finished with no-score draw in game (3) L?O
If LOO, why?

Thanks.

[squarebear]

Arsenal finished (last letter of arsenal) = L
no score draw is nil nil or 0-0

put them together and you get LOO

[Mountainjoe]

Thank you.

Hi Squarebear, I got LOO in the way you did, but what part of the clue points to the word, LOO being the answer? Is there a link between GAME and LOO?

[sedge47]

Loo is a card game.

[squarebear]

Indeed.
