Pirates Knocked Out Of CAF CHAMPIONS

Orlando Pirates were knocked out of the CAF Champions League after losing 5-4 to Morena Ramoreboli’s Jwaneng Galaxy on penalties after the tie ended 1-1 on aggregate.

The game was evenly poised coming into the tie at Esgodini with Jwaneng holding a 1-0 lead from the first leg in Botswana.

It could have been two had it not been for a controversial offside call but with the group stages on the line, they knew Pirates were not going down without a fight in Orlando.

Ramoboreli’s side were resilient throughout, with a low-block Pirates struggling to break down and carving out a couple of chances on the counter.
