Cautious game against ES Setif might mean some danger down the Caf Confederation Cup line

Orlando Pirates seemed wary of taking the more adventurous approach needed to earn three points against ES Setif at Orlando Stadium on Wednesday, settling for a 0-0 Caf Confederation Cup Group A draw.

If Enyimba win or draw against Al Ahli Benghazi in Libya on Thursday, Pirates will be through before their final game. If Ahli win, then Bucs will need a draw or win in Nigeria. Pirates beat Enyimba 2-1 in their second Group A game. Significantly, if Bucs qualify history will be made, with three SA teams in continental quarterfinals for the first time, as Mamelodi Sundowns and Kaizer Chiefs have reached that stage in the CIn North African tradition, Setif were physical and organised. They were aggressive too, and that showed in a first half where perhaps Pirates seemed overly circumspect, committing numbers forward in promising situations.
