00:00And underway then, at the Cape Town Stadium.

00:06The Maroons, as you might guess, in Maroon, kicking from right to left in the first half.

00:10Zamelec, the visitors in this CAF Confederation Cup.

00:16Godswill swings the ball in, nicely laid off for De Jong.

00:20De Jong goes into the air, he's gone down on the edge of the area.

00:23The referee ignores that, I'm sure the VAR will have a quick look.

00:27Produce.

00:29Just over the quarter hour, no real chances at either end so far.

00:33Well, just no chances at either end so far.

00:37The ball eventually goes in, it's not the best of crosses, but headed backwards.

00:43Or giving the ball the way.

00:45Now what can Stellenbosch do on the transition here?

00:47They need support up there as quickly as possible.

00:50Kipudu can't do it all on his own.

00:51He manages to hang a ball in there to the back post, but too close to Mohamed Awad.

00:57Now then.

00:59Can De Jong get on the end of that? Yes, he can.

01:01He needs to get the ball under control here.

01:03Stellenbosch, De Jong now in a bit of space on the edge of the area.

01:06Pulls the trigger, deflects.

01:11Long ball looking for Shaziri, who put his head on that,

01:14despite even not looking at the ball, to stare down the defender.

01:17The ball off nicely.

01:18They need to move the ball quicker though.

01:20Palace just dithering on the ball.

01:22De Jong gets back on it again.

01:23Now there's a run into the area, headed down.

01:25Looking for space just on the edge of the box.

01:28There's De Jong again now, popping up on the right-hand side.

01:31Someone at least providing movement here for the studies.

01:36De Jong again, just about gets the ball to Nduli.

01:43Kiba eventually turns.

01:45De Jong turning on the edge.

01:47The area stabs out a shot, but both high.

01:51In a dramatic game against Cleopatra,

01:53they've now set up an Egyptian Cup final

01:56against Premier League-leading Pyramids,

02:00who have also got one foot in the semifinals of the Champions League

02:04after a big 4-1 win at Hota Asfara about last night.

02:09That was a game that was broken open by mistakes at the back.

02:18To Zizou again on this right-hand side.

02:20Four white shirts to Weymouth.

02:21If he wants to, takes a bit of a deflection and Stephens adjusts.

02:26Turns the ball up.

02:27Well, more maroon shirts needing to come forward.

02:30There's two to Weymouth in the area.

02:31De Jong has come short.

02:39The ball chipped in, but no one had made the run in behind.

02:42Titus looks a little bit fenced from Zamalek.

02:45Nicely laid off by Jaziri.

02:47And now things could open up here for Zamalek

02:49if they can keep the pace and momentum up in the attack.

02:51And they lay the ball off to the left.

02:52Yes, they can.

02:53Now, space opening up shortly for the shot.

02:56Comes in and it's just been stabbed high and wide.

02:59Not far high in the group phase.

03:02Ball over the top looking for De Jong.

03:04Second ball picked up on the edge of the area.

03:06The shot.

03:07Well, is that a handball?

03:09No, says the referee.

03:11Is it more ball to hand than anything else?

03:13Is the arm in a natural position?

03:15Ball swung in towards De Jong.

03:18Not much support there, though, for the Kiwi.

03:26Now, Bazanian.

03:29Finds De Jong in this near side.

03:30De Jong.

03:32He's got two.

03:35Determined not to be hasty here.

03:37Get rushed into anything they might regret.

03:40Cupido has drifted out to the left-hand side.

03:42Puts one in there.

03:44Opportunity in this game so far.

03:46Now, all of a sudden, things opening up for Stellenbosch.

03:48Needs support on the left.

03:49Nothing there.

03:50Turns back and back again.

03:56Now, space on this near side for Bazanian.

03:58Got a nice ball in there.

04:01Good defending from Gabber.

04:03Is there any reason to be adding extra time to this first half?

04:07Jose Pesaro.

04:10The newish Zamelet coach.

04:12Well, it's always a newish coach, isn't it?

04:15He's not looking particularly happy on the sidelines.

04:19Don't blame him.

04:20It's not a hot day.

04:21There's no real excuse for the game being played at this sort of pace from either side.

04:30Chipped into the edge of the area.

04:32Strong hand.

04:34Chipped into the edge of the area.

04:35Strong header away.

04:40I don't think they're going to win much in the air against that Zamelet back five.

04:43Got to say.

04:45And the referee puts the first half out of its misery here.

04:51At the Cape Town Stadium in South Africa.

04:57In other games, it's been pretty much fair play.

05:04Stellenbosch get us underway.

05:07For the second half, the Maroons kicking from left to right.

05:11In this second period, De Jong immediately picking the ball up.

05:14They'll be pretty.

05:22Getting to the point where you're starting to think here, the Stellenbosch

05:26might be quite happy with the nil nil in the home leg.

05:29Of course, it means they get the clean sheet.

05:31Zamelek would probably have to come out and attack in the second leg.

05:35And then anything on the counter attack.

05:37Oh, and a good ball stabbed in there.

05:38And the keeper came for it.

05:40Didn't get it.

05:41Looks like he got the Stellenbosch player, in fact.

05:49The passing quicker and all of a sudden you've got a man in space.

05:52Ball goes in.

05:53And well, De Jong goes down looking for a penalty.

05:56Not the first time he's done that.

05:59Well.

06:02I mean, this is just about in range for for a shot here.

06:05If they fancy it, Stellenbosch.

06:09Instead, they've gone for the quick one.

06:12Kept in play.

06:15In fact, it was not.

06:16Incoming.

06:17Sorry.

06:18Throw in incoming.

06:19The long throw towards the near post.

06:21Flicked on by De Jong.

06:22Headed towards goal, but not enough power on it.

06:25Referee thinks about blowing his whistle, but now decides to play on.

06:28And it's Scheherazade who was bringing it forward.

06:32Now Zizou picks it up in a more central area.

06:38Zizou again.

06:40Zizou pulls a trick.

06:42They have dragged two players back to take the corner, though.

06:46That is De Jong with the flick on.

06:48And it goes into the side netting.

06:51A little bit of space opening up on the right hand side.

06:54Now Zizou, he wants to try and turn inside here.

06:57Oh, nice.

06:58For Gabert.

06:59Gabert puts the ball into the back post.

07:01And that was an important defensive header.

07:04From Tata Kiba.

07:05In the last, what, 11 minutes plus.

07:08There shouldn't be too much in the West Office.

07:10Although we did have a couple of injury timeouts at the start of the half.

07:13As you can see.

07:14But it's not too much.

07:15It's not too much.

07:16It's not too much.

07:17We did have a couple of injury timeouts at the start of the half.

07:20As Zizou now breaks into space on that right hand side.

07:23Time to look up.

07:24Does look up.

07:25Measures across the back post.

07:26And it's...

07:29God's will with the ball inside to Gabert.

07:32Stabs across in.

07:33It's been brought down.

07:36No shot coming in.

07:37Flicked on.

07:38Just actually flicked away from Zizou.

07:40But Gabert will pick that up at the far side now.

07:44Zizou has followed him out there.

07:46Just trying to find some space.

07:47Thinks about moving on to his left foot.

07:49Whips one in on the right instead.

07:51Stabbed away by Ndouli.

07:53And then smashed.

07:59Some of them attacking reinforcements as well.

08:01That's a nice ball in from the back post.

08:02And it's...

08:03Oh, saved onto the post.

08:05Well, that's the closest we've come to the opening goal.

08:07It's...

08:10Long ball into the area.

08:11The keeper comes for it.

08:13Half gets it.

08:17And with that, the referee finally brings this one to an end.

08:27Does...

08:29Tanguy Mbiame.

08:31Handshakes all round.

08:32A goalless draw here.

08:37At the Cape Town Stadium.

08:39A game of few real chances.

08:41I can only think of one proper save that had to be made, really.
