00:00They've been performing well in the Federation Cup for a few campaigns before that.

00:06They lost the final to Burkhan in 2020.

00:09Of course, they were only established as Pyramids when they were renamed and moved, reaching

00:18the group stage for the first time.

00:19It's been a difficult one.

00:20They'll be hoping to finish on a high here today against Pyramids, and it is the Malian

00:25visitors who get us underway.

00:29Long ball forward, which will be easily cut out by Mahmoud Marai.

00:48That's nicely worked.

00:50It wasn't even in the squad last time out, and they've got a chance for a shot here.

01:00It's a great curling effort, and what a start for Pyramids.

01:03Well, that puts a bit of pressure on Esperance over in Tunis.

01:08It's a wonderful strike from Sadi Gugala.

01:1324-year-old Nigerian taking his opportunity in from the start, and it's a fantastic finish.

01:25It looks as though he may have been offside, but it was played to him by a Joliba player,

01:31and he took a moment, picked his spot, and then found the top corner.

01:36It's an excellent goal.

01:38Marwan Hamdi heads the ball down for Sobhi, who plays a good ball back through to him.

01:42Hamdi!

01:44And he scored in back-to-back CAF Champions League group games.

01:48And this is already turning into a very difficult evening for Joliba, because Pyramids have

01:54taken a two-goal lead inside the first ten minutes.

01:58And it's Marwan Hamdi, the hero from last weekend's win over Sagrada, that sealed Pyramids'

02:04place in the quarterfinals, who doubles their advantage today with a very good finish into the far corner.

02:15And if Esperance can't get the better of Sagrada in Tunis tonight, it increasingly looks as though

02:24Pyramids are going to steal top spot in Group D.

02:31We're getting back into this game as well, with only six minutes to play until half-time.

02:37There is the strike, it's a really good one, and it's a fine stop by El Shenawi.

02:47And that is half-time.

02:49Those fine early goals from Sodiq Ghala and Marwan Hamdi have Pyramids in control.

02:58They need to better Esperance's result in the other closing Group D fixture to finish first,

03:04but they're doing their part here.

03:11After reaching the quarterfinals for the first time this time last week,

03:16it's maybe given Pyramids a bit of belief that they can snatch top spot in the group.

03:21A much changed Pyramids team today.

03:24Got off to a flying start in that first half with goals in the first ten minutes from Sodiq Ghala and Marwan Hamdi.

03:35Xionnibar still searching for their first ever Champions League group stage win or goal.

03:42Still searching for their first ever Champions League group stage win or goal.

03:50They were eliminated last week, of course.

03:59And he has another opportunity now to get forward, and Sobiq has a lot of space here.

04:05Slides it back to Fatih, who scoops it over the top, looking for Hamdi.

04:12Marwan Hamdi tees up Fatih with the finish.

04:15Oh, that's a really nice goal from Mostafa Fatih.

04:21And Pyramids now surely out of sight.

04:26They scored twice early in the first half.

04:29There's another goal early in the second.

04:32This time it's from Mostafa Fatih.

04:35Marwan Hamdi at the back.

04:38This time it's from Mostafa Fatih.

04:41Marwan Hamdi at an earlier goal.

04:48Just poking the ball across for Fatih.

04:53He produces a really calm finish.

04:56It's three really good goals today from Pyramids.

05:01Guiding it into that far corner.

05:08Oh, it looks as though Pyramids have certainly done.

05:13That's a really good ball from Ugala.

05:16Marwan Hamdi cuts inside.

05:20Finds a pass as well to Sobiq.

05:23We've got Aman over here. It's Fatih again.

05:25The pass wasn't the best, and he goes down looking for a penalty, which is given.

05:30It's going to be an opportunity for a fourth goal here for Pyramids.

05:35He did stick his right leg out there Diallo.

05:39And brought down Fatih.

05:42An ill-advised challenge.

05:47Ramadan Sobiq steps up.

05:52He has so much experience.

05:55Can he score his first goal of the season? Yes, he can.

05:58It hasn't been a season

06:01that he would have wanted so far.

06:04He's finally off the mark for the campaign.

06:09Former Premier League star

06:12stretches Pyramids' lead further.

06:15It was a very cool penalty.

06:18Easily sending Yusuf Poyter the wrong way.

06:21And Pyramids are rounding off their Group D campaign with a flourish.

06:28Surely now it's only a matter of how many more they can score.

06:41And now they've lost the ball at the back.

06:44It's four on three here for Pyramids.

06:47It's a good ball as well by Ugala.

06:49Good first touch and a good second.

06:52And an even better third.

06:55And an even better third.

06:58The calm Mr. Finishes from Abdelrahman Magdi makes it five.

07:03And with Joliba committing so many bodies forward

07:06in search of that first Champions League group stage goal

07:10they left themselves completely exposed on the counter.

07:16Everything Kunaslav Jovcic touches seems to be turning to gold at the moment.

07:22Magdi has only been on for a matter of moments

07:25but that's an excellent goal from the substitute.

07:32Five nil and you wouldn't bet against Pyramids

07:36adding further to their tally tonight.

07:40But a few Hoth fans in attendance.

07:44It's been a great evening for them.

07:51It's an assist as well for Ugala who's been really impressive.

07:56No foul given and now it's a three on three for Joliba.

07:59Is this finally their moment?

08:01Oh it might be a penalty.

08:02That looked like a foul, it was.

08:05And well they're never going to get a better chance than this

08:09to finally find the net.

08:12It's a bit of a silly tackle really from Ahmed Sami

08:18back in the line-up today.

08:25The ball has been given to striker Zoumana Simpara.

08:32Qualification has long gone for Joliba

08:35but will they get a goal?

08:37Oh they can't even do that.

08:39It's a good save from Ahmed El Shenawi

08:42and it's more disappointment

08:46for Joliba in front of goal in this group campaign.

08:51Tried to give El Shenawi the eyes

08:54and good front foot defending again from Ousmane Diallo.

09:00Decent cross, here's a chance for Simpara.

09:03It just won't go in for him.

09:07Nailed out that time by Mahmoud Marai.

09:10Magdi slides it through.

09:13Is this going to be six?

09:15It is, it's a really good finish.

09:18Lovely pass from Abdelrahman Magdi.

09:22Joliba were wide open there.

09:27And it's been put into the bottom corner.

09:31Provided the finishing touch.

09:33They were queuing up really.

09:35It's a really good finish again.

09:37They've been clinical today in front of goal pyramids.

09:40Lovely pass through by Magdi and a great finish.

09:45Substitutes combining.

09:49Goal number six for pyramids.

09:52We've already seen a 6-0 win in the CAF Champions League today.

09:56That was for Seher Belouistad.

10:01And it is the full-time whistle.

10:03Joliba's race in the CAF Champions League

10:06ended last weekend

10:08when pyramids also booked their place in the quarter-finals

10:11with a game to go.

10:13It is the Egyptians who have to settle for going through

10:17as Group D runners-up behind Esperance.
