The grammar of sentence query.

Dear all,

I'm trying to understand of the sentence below

"The sectors that probably have more problems than the UK average are public services, telecommunications, transport and service sector."


In especially, I 'd like to separate with grammar. so I tried to separate what as the below.

[The sectors that probably have more problems than the UK average] [are] [public services, telecommunications, transport and service sector].


I think that first one is subject second is verb and last is complement.

but I'm not sure whether this is correctly what I tried or not.

and How native linstener understand and distinguish when they got like this order sentence?
