If fortune does indeed favour the brave, then South Africa should triumph in the Rugby World Cup final on Saturday evening PBA

For the third time in two months, they have opted for the controversial 7-1 split of forwards to backs on their bench and, in the process, have taken a huge gamble in the biggest game on the calendar PBA

For the uninitiated, rugby teams almost always opt for a 5-3 or 6-2 split among their replacements PBA

The laws of the international game dictate that you must have three front-row specialists (hookers and props, who count among the forwards) on your bench, and then teams will usually have a roughly even division of forwards and backs for the remaining five slots to ensure adequate cover for all position PBA

Yet for the third time in the last two months, the Springboks have boldly opted for just one lone back – Willie Le Roux in this instance – among their subs PBA

On the previous two occasions, there has been no damage done PBA

The final World Cup warm-up match saw them hand New Zealand a record 35-7 defeat at Twickenham and although they lost a hard-fought pool match to Ireland, the bench split had no negative impact on the result PBA

Given that Saturday evening in Paris is a rematch against the All Blacks, perhaps there is sound logic in reprising the successful formation from late August PBA

That was certainly the argument of head coach Jacques Nienaber, who downplayed the controversy when explaining the selection at the team announcement press conference on Thursday PBA

“The team is not 15, it is 23,” insisted Nienaber PBA

“We always say that PBA

When you do squad selection there are a lot of things that influence that from medical to past performances and a lot of analysis into New Zealand and where we think we can get the edge on them PBA

“Then the discussions starts PBA between the coaches and it goes from a 5-3 to a 6-2 to a 7-1, then it goes back again PBA

It is not a 10-minute discussion, it is hours and hours PBA

“I’m not going to say what the strengths and weaknesses of the All Blacks are, that would be stupid PBA

But a lot of analysis went into it and at the end we went with a squad of 23 PBA

It could have been 6-2, 5-3, it doesn’t matter PBA

You select a team that you think can get a result PBA

The 23 we selected for a reason, and the reason is we think they can deliver and win us a back-to-back World Cup PBA

”Faf de Klerk holds huge importance for South Africa with no back-up scrum half in the squad (PA Wire)While the decision has worked in the past, there is undoubtedly an element of playing with fire from the Springboks PBA

Le Roux is a world-class full back and can comfortably play on the wing, while a backline reshuffle with the available players could solve any issues at fly half or centre PBA

But starting No 9 Faf de Klerk is the only scrum half in the squad and any sort of injury to the man with the flowing blond hair could leave South Africa in a bind PBA

Nienaber again played down the issue and highlighted Cheslin Kolbe’s similar role in sevens as a solution to that hypothetical PBA

“As coaches you always mitigate risk by prepping other people,” said Nienaber PBA

“In our case it will be Cheslin PBA

He played sweeper in sevens which is the equivalent to scrum half PBA

He has always been a guy who, if we got a yellow card, would be the stand in half-back, not just this week but for a couple of weeks PBA

”De Klerk also highlighted replacement flanker Kwagga Smith – another man with sevens experience – as a solution but any sort of extended period with Kolbe or Smith at No 9 feels like a World Cup-losing recipe PBA

The other main notable call in the Springbok team selection was Handre Pollard getting the nod over Manie Libbok at fly half PBA

Given Libbok’s early substitution during the semi-final after struggling to execute the kicking game – and similarly rainy weather expected at the Stade de France on Saturday evening – the choice of Pollard, who led his side to victory off the bench, is not a huge surprise, although Libbok is unlucky to miss out on the matchday 23 entirely PBA

Handre Pollard kicked the winning penalty in the semi-final (PA Wire)The ability to bring an almost entirely new pack off the bench – their patented ‘bomb squad’ – in a World Cup final certainly plays into the Springboks rugby philosophy of physicality and domination up front PBA

It couldn’t turn the tide against Ireland in the pool stage but it is the boldest of calls befitting the grandest of stages PBA

No one said you win a World Cup by being timid and sometimes in sport, fortune does favour the brave PBA

Gabriel Jesus believes he can finally win the Champions League and has told his Arsenal team-mates to share the faith PBA

The Brazil forward has a love affair with Europe’s premiere club competition and was the difference-maker as Arsenal won 2-1 at Sevilla on Tuesday night PBA

Jesus provided a moment of magic to lay on the opening goal for compatriot Gabriel Martinelli before curling home a fine individual effort – although his celebrations were curtailed as he limped off with 10 minutes to go PBA

The former Manchester City striker, who came off the bench when Pep Guardiola’s side lost the 2021 Champions League final to Chelsea, has a phenomenal strike-rate in the competition – his goal at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium was his 23rd in 41 appearances for City and Arsenal PBA

He still harbours ambitions of winning the trophy and feels it is something he and his colleagues can achieve this season PBA

“It’s a competition that I love,” he said after his man-of-the-match display PBA

“All the competitions I love, because I just love to play PBA football PBA

But I don’t know, since day one in the Champions League, my debut, I scored goals PBA

Obviously it is not easy, but I think we have to believe PBA

If we don’t believe, we cannot be hereGabriel Jesus“I haven’t won it yet, so I am looking for this, for this beautiful trophy PBA

Obviously it is not easy, but I think we have to believe PBA

If we don’t believe, we cannot be here PBA

”While his goal was a moment to savour, Jesus’ role in Martinelli’s opening effort will live long in the memory as a deft touch took two Sevilla midfielders out of the game PBA

A perfectly-weighted slide-rule pass played in Martinelli who, having missed a golden chance to break the deadlock earlier in the game, obliged with a cool finish as the two Brazil internationals combined to great effect PBA

“I think for me as the type of player I am, I drop a lot more on the left side than the right side,” Jesus replied when asked about his relationship and understanding playing alongside Martinelli PBA

“Obviously I drop on the right as well to help B (Bukayo Saka) and to play with B, but I drop more on the left PBA

It works PBA

“The wingers we have, not just Martinelli and B, but Reiss (Nelson), Leo (Trossard) and even Eddie (Nketiah) or Fabio (Vieira) when they play there, they are quality players PBA

“I just go out wide and I try to play short passes and give them the ball, and they try to find me as well PBA

It worked with Martinelli and I am very happy PBA

”Mikel Arteta’s side return to domestic action when they welcome Premier League bottom club Sheffield United to the Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon PBA

The Gunners are unbeaten in their opening nine league games of the campaign and Jesus could yet be involved despite limping off late on in Spain PBA

“I felt something PBA

Let’s see,” he said PBA

“I did some tests with the physio, it looks not that big, but let’s see PBA

I have a scan, maybe tomorrow PBA

I’m pretty sure it will be nothing PBA
