00:00Pyramids hosting their first ever Champions League semi-final tie.

00:07The referee blows the whistle and away we go in Cairo.

00:13Second leg of the second semi-final of this edition of the Total Energies.

00:19CAF Champions League Orlando Pirates take on Pyramids.

00:23Great position. Pyramids needing two to avoid defeat.

00:27That was exactly how the other semi-final played out.

00:34But here, the opening opportunity going the way of the hosts.

00:39According to Mustafa Fatih.

00:41Good first touch. Second.

00:49Doesn't remain with Pyramids for very long, though.

00:52That's nicely worked. Here's Hotto.

00:53To cut the ball back.

00:56And the space for the shot opened up there for Evidence Makopa.

01:01The shot, though, was straight at Ahmad El-Shinawi.

01:12Good first touch at his best.

01:14He prepares to turn 34 in a couple of weeks' time.

01:25Will he be worked again here?

01:26Because that headed clearance has only dropped as far as Magopa.

01:31Four Pirates.

01:33One of their tallest players.

01:35He's watching on.

01:36It's flicked on.

01:37It's going to drop.

01:37The rebound as well from Hotto.

01:46He's blasted over.

01:50That was a chance.

01:51Leaning back.

02:02Frustration.

02:05With not just these two semi-final legs to play.

02:09But also, a pair of derbies with their rivals as well.

02:25Four Pirates.

02:29For now, it's the attack.

02:33Not the defense that they have to worry about.

02:37And there, finally, is the breakthrough.

02:43How crucial could that be?

02:45Not just a goal, but an away goal for Orlando Pirates.

02:49Again, Gabriel Pellets.

02:57Ahmad, with a word or two for his defense.

03:01With a word or two for his defense.

03:02He was rather helpless there.

03:09All came from the free kick.

03:13Hotto sending it in.

03:14Hamdi partially cleared it.

03:16But it dropped for Moff with a free kick.

03:19And the 20-year-old calmly slotting it into the bottom corner to give Pirates a 1-0 lead

03:29after more than two hours of this semi-final encounter.

03:34A long way from heading down the tunnel just now, Pirates need to steady the ship and as

03:53quickly as they had the lead, it's gone.

03:59He was denied the opener in the first leg, he's grabbed the equaliser in the second.

04:11Congolese in the right place at the right time there as this time it was Pirates who failed

04:16to clear their lines.

04:23A long ball forwards, there will be a VAR check, I'm sure.

04:30That's not the angle to see.

04:33VAR will have all of them.

04:37VAR will have all of them.

04:38VAR will have all of them.

04:40VAR will have all of them.

04:42VAR will have all of them.

04:44VAR will have all of them.

04:46VAR will have all of them.

04:48VAR will have all of them.

04:50VAR will have all of them.

04:52the first half of the second leg of the semi-final.

04:56Well, these two cancelled each other out for over two hours.

05:01But just like that, two goals in five minutes late in the first

05:06half of the second leg of the semi-final.

05:10Relibahile, Mafakeng, opening the score as their lead

05:15disappeared. They do, though, have slightly the upper hand.

05:21Still going through to the final as things stand.

05:24And as the referee blows to commence the second 45,

05:30the final 45 of this.

05:34But draw, which sees them through.

05:37For now, that's a partially cleared header by Sabisi.

05:40The shot came back in.

05:42Sipo chain. Comfortable.

05:45Sabisi. It's he, though, who gave away this free kick.

05:49It's sent goalwards. It had to be saved by Chain.

05:56Low to his left.

05:58The switch of play is under-hit, though. Van Ruyen.

06:01Onto Nkota. He has space to run into.

06:04The GoPro ahead of him.

06:07So, too, the goalscorer, Mafakeng, is going to come back, though.

06:11And Nkota said, I'll do it myself.

06:18Another 20-year-old scores for Pirates as they potentially sail into the Champions League final.

06:26The second away goal.

06:30The second away goal.

06:37They are back in pole position here.

06:42They are back in pole position here.

06:45They are back in pole position here.

06:46They silenced the crowd in Cairo.

06:48The attempted ball forwards cut out.

06:49It dropped back at the feet of Nkota.

06:50It dropped back at the feet of Nkota.

06:52a touch and hammered it home. Brilliant strike from the diminutive winger, Jose Rivero. It's

07:11a straight swap. Vandalei Shandu brought on, but it's an instant response once again

07:18for Pyramids. Twice they've fallen behind. Twice they've equalized inside five minutes.

07:40Long ball into the box. And once again the Pirates defence sleeping. A despairing dive from

07:57Sipo chain. But the man brought on. It's into a good area. Saved again. Was it going to

08:09drop? Vandalei sends it into the top corner and potentially sends Pyramids into the final.

08:19And look at what it means to this young, young club. And they are flying. Twice they've

08:35fallen behind here on home soil in Cairo. But they don't lose in this stadium. 22 unbeaten.

08:44coming into tonight. Now, with barely five minutes remaining, they take the lead for the

08:50first time. Initially saved by Chain, but he couldn't do anything about the follow-up.

08:56It was Vandalei who gambled. And the gamble paid off. Right place at the right time. Vandalei's

09:04second of the night, his fifth of the tournament. He's joint top scorer now. But most importantly,

09:10it's Pyramid's third of the night. And they have one foot in the final.

09:28What a game this has been. Long. Maybe Army does this time. But it's whistle to his mouth. And blow it for the

09:34final time. Twice. Pirates led. But never for longer than five minutes. Pyramids took the lead.

09:44They didn't have to lead for much more than five minutes. Fist on Maellei's second in the 84th.

09:502nd in the 84th.

10:022nd in the 84th.
