Watch: Cheslin Kolbe produces 60-metre stunner to burn Wasps in one play

By Online Editors
Cheslin Kolbe breaks away to score a stunning try against Wasps.

Springboks livewire utility Cheslin Kolbe is in some patch of form right now.

The hot-stepping wing ripped open Wasps in one phase on a simple first receiver carry from the scrum, bouncing off the first defender before turning on the afterburners to go the distance.

Kolbe finished with a box line of 95 running metres, one try and eight defenders beaten, earning him Man of the Match honours in Toulouse's 24-16 win over Wasps at the Ricoh.

"It was a great team effort from the boys. We knew coming to Wasps wasn't going to be easy but we implemented the plan that we had coming into this.

"The forwards did really well, they made great carries and it gave the backs a lot of confidence," Kolbe said after the match.

Toulouse earned top spot in Pool One after the win, maintaining a perfect win record after they previously beat Leinster and Bath. Wasps, who are bottom on the Pool, return to France next weekend to play Toulouse in the return leg.
