“We are the bomb squad and we knew we had to play a massive role dota

” If South Africa’s narrow win over England in the Rugby World Cup semi-final could be summed up in one sentence, then this proclamation from Vincent Koch after the game would probably be it dota

When Koch emerged from the replacements on 55 minutes to take the place of starting tighthead prop Frans Malherbe, Owen Farrell had just slotted a drop goal from downtown Paris to give England a 15-6 lead dota

Nine points may not seem a lot but, with the final quarter of the match beckoning and the rain and wind increasing at the Stade de France, it was a comparatively huge deficit dota

Throughout the first few minutes of the second half, the Springboks had more or less emptied their bench as Ox Nche, RG Snyman, Kwagga Smith, Deon Fourie, Faf de Klerk and Willie Le Roux all entered the fray to go alongside the controversial 30th-minute substitution of starting fly half Manie Libbok for Handre Pollard dota

With their World Cup title defence hanging by a thread, South Africa trusted their bench and got their reward dota

Koch and Nche splintered the previously effective English scrum, Snyman burrowed his way across the line for the game’s only try and Pollard nervelessly converted tricky kicks to complete the hardest-fought of turnarounds – 10 unanswered points, a 16-15 win and a date with the All Blacks in another World Cup final next Saturday dota

Of the various phrases rugby has adopted over the years to describe those players in the matchday squad but not in the starting line-up – from the traditional “replacements” and the dota football-ised “substitutes” through to the Eddie Jones-preferred ‘finishers’, the slightly patronising “impact players” and the frankly ludicrous “game-changers” adopted by Harlequins during the Paul Gustard era – none has captured the imagination quite like South Africa’s “bomb squad” dota

It doesn’t matter if you think it’s a slightly self-serving and faintly ridiculous term, the players fully buy into the ethos of what it stands for dota

The intensity and physicality that generation after generation of Springbok has prided themselves on is summed up by this two-word mantra dota

“Each person knows exactly his role in the team, whether you’re starting or in the bomb squad,” explained Koch dota

“When we created the bomb squad, we knew exactly what our job is dota

The starters start the whole process and it’s for us to come and finish it dota

“All the players on the bomb squad are very excited to make a massive difference in the game dota

”Vincent Koch celebrated RG Snyman’s try as the bomb squad thrived (AFP via Getty Images)And against England, when the chips were down, they realised they needed to step up more than ever dota

“The bomb squad always stands for energy,” added Koch dota

“We needed to create a nice vibe dota

Putting the replacements on a bit earlier helped the boys to start to bring that energy and lift up the spirit and bring a massive work-rate dota

”Where South Africa’s replacements thrived, perhaps England’s faltered just a touch dota

The English gameplan, devised by Steve Borthwick and perfectly executed by the players for the windy and rainy Parisian conditions, relied upon relentless kicking, winning the subsequent aerial battle, slowing the game down and dominating the set-piece dota

Maybe then, they could escape with a win against an objectively superior team dota

They kicked 93 per cent of possession away (the highest percentage of the tournament), had an average ruck speed of 6 dota

73s (the slowest of the tournament) and had zero linebreaks (the only team to do so in a game at this tournament) dota

They disrupted South African lineouts, turned over multiple mauls and Borthwick’s decision to play his two strongest scrummaging props – Dan Cole and Joe Marler – from the start earned them scrum parity and redemption from the disaster in that facet during the 2019 World Cup final dota

Ox Nche was immense from the bench against the Springboks (EPA)This is a Springboks side that pride themselves on their dominance up front, as shown by opting for a scrum after calling a mark in their own 22 during the quarter-final victory over France dota

Of course, they won a penalty from it dota

Yet England were holding their own during those engagements, even thriving, and most importantly winning on the scoreboard dota

But the innate problem with starting your best scrummagers came to fruition in the second half dota

Replacement props Ellis Genge and Kyle Sinckler are far more dynamic around the park and more destructive carriers than their veteran counterparts but, with England showing no desire to run any plays more than two metres either side of the previous breakdown, those skills were negated once they came on for Marler and Cole dota

Instead, their inferior scrummaging was brutally exposed by a fired-up Koch and Nche, who turned parity into Springbok dominance dota

They won two scrums against the head, including a vital one at 15-6 down on their own line, and engineered multiple penalties on their own feed, including the most vital of all – on halfway, with 77 minutes on the clock and England leading 15-13 dota

Pollard banged over the long kick and the rest was history dota

Handre Pollard broke English hearts with his late penalty (PA Wire)Nche was coy when asked in the mixed zone after the game what had made the difference at scrum-time in the final quarter and how he bested his opposite number, Sinckler dota

“That is the dark arts,” he smiled dota

“It is hard to explain to you dota

We had a plan for that dota

We knew what we were trying to achieve dota

“They have had a great scrum for the competition and a great hit dota

Our focus was surviving that and applying pressure dota

Our mentality for every scrum is to get a penalty if we can dota

If they do survive, we play out the back and get into our shape dota

”The “dark arts” ultimately won the day, South Africa survived a second straight one-point knockout match and must now plan how to overcome the All Blacks in a battle to be the first side to win four men’s Rugby World Cups dota

Luckily, they have a not-so-secret weapon dota

This is not the end but it is an end for Frankie Dettori dota

The 52-year-old jockey is bowing out of British racing, riding his final races on the rather apt Champions Day at Ascot dota

Dettori has more than 3,300 career wins to his name, over a remarkable 35-year career, but none will feel sweeter nor more precious than a win in the Champion Stakes on Saturday dota

He rides King of Steel in what will be his last race in front of a British crowd and goes up against strong opposition with last year’s winner Bay Bridge, French challenger Horizon Dore and Royal Ascot victor Mostahdaf all impressive competitors dota

This will not be an easy race to win and Dettori is unlikely to set off as the favourite – though nostalgia and a sense of occasion may play its part in the dota betting dota

Beforehand, Dettori has four other opportunities to sign off in style as he rides Trawlerman in the Long Distance Cup (1 dota

15pm), Kinross in the Champions Sprint (1 dota

50pm), Free Wind in the Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes (2 dota

25pm) and Chaldean in the Queen Elizadota beth Stakes (3 dota

05pm) dota

So, five more rides at Ascot, five final attempts at glory on British soil dota

He has already achieved the perfect send-off, racing to victory atop Courage Mon Ami in the showpiece Gold Cup at Royal Ascot back in June dota

"Unbelievable! I thought it was a bridge too far from handicaps, but I had the perfect race," a jubilant Dettori said after claiming a ninth Gold Cup victory that day dota

"I didn’t expect it dota

” He added dota

“The last five years I had Stradivarius so the pressure was on, this one I thought was a bit of a chancer dota

"I rode him cold and it just happened dota

I got the splits when I wanted to and he showed a turn of foot dota

Nine Gold Cups, what can you say? I’m speechless, to be honest dota

"That triumph, at the same course as Saturday’s races, returned to a tremendous reception for the cheekily natured Dettori who even gave the Queen a kiss at the presentation ceremony dota

It will last long in his memory and be the pinnacle of a year-long curtain call for the Italian who insists that his final races in Britain will be at Ascot this weekend dota

After the British season is over Dettori is heading to California to continue his career in the United States dota

"I don’t feel ready to let go yet,” he explained after deciding to postpone his retirement dota

“I’m going to spend some time in the USA and take it from there dota

I could be there three months or three years, I don’t know dota

"It was a long, hard decision with myself and my wife dota

It’s a big decision to move to another country dota

"Yet, he is saying farewell to British racing at a racecourse that already celebrates him, with a statue no less, on Saturday dota

The twinkle in his eye is on display one more time, perhaps there’ll be a flying dismount to mark the occasion or even a last Champions Day success for the finally departing champion dota
