Miracle worked — Sheeran's won from evil! (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reclaimed

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'won from evil' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'miracle worked sheeran's' is the wordplay.
'worked' is an anagram indicator.
'sheeran' becomes 'ed' (Ed Sheeran).
'miracle' with letters rearranged gives 'reclaim'.
'reclaim'+'ed'='RECLAIMED'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reclaimed that I've seen before include "Salvaged" , "Recovered, like fenland" , "Retrieved" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
