Cardiff coach Terry Holmes named an unchanged side yesterday for Sunday's European Cup final against Toulouse at the Arms Park.

The decision to stick with the team which beat Leinster 23-14 in last weekend's semi final at Lansdowne Road means that former international Jonathan Davies remains among the replacements.

International wing Nigel Walker will also be on the bench for Cardiff who have 17 capped players among their 22 man squad. A crowd of more than 20,000 is expected and Holmes believes they will see his side win the European Cup.

"I will be very disappointed if we don't lift the cup. We have got enough resolve, character and skill to win," said Holmes.
