Incredible Kolbe athleticism turns heavy defence into lovely counter attack in Top 14

BY Shaywaterworth  ·  Sunday Mar 7, 2021
Springboks star Cheslin Kolbe produced a moment of brilliance while playing for Toulouse in Saturday’s Top 14 clash with Brive.

The 27-year-old was guarding the touchline as Brive attempted a daring kick to the corner with just five minutes left on the clock at Stade Toulousain.

However Kolbe had other ideas on his mind and somehow managed to acrobatically keep the ball in play by passing it between his own legs and keeping his toes in field.

The sheer agility and athleticism of the full back was on full show in this instance and having kept the ball alive, Kolbe then managed to run the ball upfield and launch a counter attack for Toulouse.

Kolbe gained international fame during the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan and is widely regarded as one of the best back three players in world rugby right now.
