    SuperSport highlights, 30 October to 1 November

    It is said nobody remembers who came second …… or third, or fourth. But that will have no meaning for the Springboks and Argentina when they meet on Friday in the World Cup rugby match that nobody wants to play.

    It is said nobody remembers who came second …… or third, or fourth. But that will have no meaning for the Springboks and Argentina when they meet on Friday in the World Cup rugby match that nobody wants to play.

    The third-place playoff (SS1 from 9pm) may be irrelevant for some, but professional pride will ensure that the Boks and the Pumas will be fully fired up for their final encounter of what has been an enthralling World Cup.

    Given Argentina's rise to prominence, this is no longer a dead cert win for the Boks, so they will need to be mentally attuned to the challenge. In addition, the incentive of sending off some rugby legends into retirement on the right note will permeate the Olympic Park night air.

    Of course, whichever way you look at it, the main action takes place on Saturday (SS1, from 4pm) when the final between New Zealand and Australia takes place. This is shaping up to be one of the classic World Cup finals, with the inventive Aussies out to break down an All Blacks side with few weaknesses.

    A soccer classic in its own right will take place in the Absa Premier Soccer League when Soweto giants Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates meet on Saturday (SS4, 2pm). Simply put, there is no bigger match in South African soccer than this Soweto derby and the excitement generated by the showdown will be almost tangible at the FNB Stadium.

    Domestic cricket moves into the fast lane when the Ram Slam T20 Challenge starts on Sunday with a double-header at Newlands. The Warriors, who showed great form in the Momentum One-Day Cup, will kick it off against the Knights (SS8, 11.45am), followed by the Cape Cobras against the Lions (SS8, 3.45pm). In Benoni, the Titans start their campaign against the Dolphins (SS2, 3.15pm).
