Orlando Pirates sealed their CAF Confederation Cup quarter-final spot as Group B winners after playing to a goalless draw against Al-Ittihad on Sunday evening. SLSiya Read more:
Pirates made three changes from the side that beat JS Saoura, as Bongani Sam made his first start in the tournament alongside the return of Ben Motshwari and Fortune Makaringe.
Al-Ittihad were defending deep in their own half and Pirates only came close to breaking the deadlock nine minutes before the half-time break from a clever free-kick by Kabelo Dlamini on the edge of the box that missed the bottom corner by a whisker. However, the Libyan side went back to defending in numbers and not giving Pirates spaces in dangerous positions, which prompted the coaching staff to make a double change 25 minutes before time as Thembinkosi Lorch and Gabadinho Mhango replaced Kwame Peprah and Shandu.
