00:00look like we're about ready to go and we're off pyramids our hosts in white shorts and blue tops
00:07kicking from right to left in the first half as far about our visitors attacking the goal
00:14on our right immediately looking for space down the channel there and the run of ramadan subi
00:22just a little bit too much on that let's see the pitch getting a good watering before the
00:27game as well so the ball is going to skip off that surface at least to start with may slow down a bit
00:34as we go through the first half so
00:37long ball on but really really in the right place to pick up that flick
00:45chases down the keeper under pressure on boards here great opportunity here now for pyramids
00:50and there's the opener two minutes in
00:51catastrophic defending at the back from as far back
00:59investment he has his fifth goal of the champions league this campaign
01:04and just how important could that start be for pyramids
01:15hey
01:19at the back
01:22ball given away
01:25egyptian international mustafa fatty uses intelligence could have gone for goal himself
01:32noticed that migueli was on his own it's a poor touch as we said from labi nachi
01:38he's not a natural center back by the way normally plays at the base of midfield
01:45hey it's very tight in midfield but now some space opens up for adele
01:53adele could take his time to pick the cross and there's the second goal
01:58and it's fisted may early again and effectively two attacks for pyramids and the tuner
02:15let's see well stunned i think
02:18is the word for the home fans they can't believe the start their sides made here
02:27midfield handles it and then all of a sudden one pass into space the defender had a two-on-one
02:33couldn't stay with him couldn't drop back to her keep care of migueli either
02:37look at the cross here off the outside of the foot
02:45pointed as if he was about to try the cutback but if he was going with his
02:49right foot on this it was never going to be the cutback was it
02:54was always going across goal
02:58you just see the hesitation from the defender nagi again i think
03:02well goals five and six
03:13nice turn from hafez now looking for migueli as well and he's through on goal here the flag
03:19stays down oh and he's missed it oh the flag goes up belatedly of course with uh passes
03:33long ball over the top and well what's happened here the referee keeping his
03:42whistle in his pocket for that one three defenders and he wants to see the medical man as well
03:49good
03:58well alfali may have had a little bump from the back there i just
04:02wonder if there's a var check going on this one the question is
04:12well referees being called to the screen now we all know what this means once the referee is
04:19called to have a look it means var believe
04:30has he got a touch on the ball hard to say now the rules say that it has to be a clear and obvious
04:36error before a decision can be overturned that is that's what it says in black and white in
04:42the regulations anyway is that always how it's refereed with var well not always made his mind
04:49up what's he doing here no penalty not a clear and obvious error i have to say though if he'd
04:58given the penalty and then been shown the street i would say that the penalty would probably
05:05eventually dispossessed good defending from a selby
05:11giving away again and they're through here adele and that's three now
05:1838 minutes in and pyramids are in dreamland here
05:24ibrahim adele with his fifth goal in the competition
05:27and again it came from asphalt giving the ball away in their own final third
05:36sloppy passing under pressure admittedly but it's all going wrong for alexandra santos
05:43portuguese tactician will be hard up against it at halftime to turn this one around
05:57really dry acasa blanca but here look looks up poor pass straight to the pyramids player
06:05it's sobbing spotted the pass and adele spotted the finish
06:11pyramids three goals to the good and we're not even at halftime in the first leg yet
06:28honey
06:30ball forward it's opening up here it's really opening up for hand draft and there's one back
06:36for asphalt on the stroke at halftime
06:43hi
06:49abdel fattah hand draft this is lala in his way through the pyramids defense
07:06he's picked up his second goal of the competition
07:09he picks up the loose ball here went past one shemith passed another
07:17gabber and shibby unable to get the challenge in and hand draft with the
07:23cool calm finish into the corner and all of a sudden asphalt
07:30uh
07:34nice ball in for adele nice bit of a slighter foot there from the number 30
07:38where he's gone down holding his face
07:49grabbed by the neck you could say from it
07:52well i said earlier when the referee is called to the screen it usually means there's a decision
08:05to be made earlier he decided it was not of impact actually just show the incident in full time
08:13i'm gonna need another angle i think you see that if you see the camera angle from
08:17behind that goal it's a lot more obvious
08:24here we go no penalty
08:33did this first half
08:38and eventually our somalian referee brings the first half to a close here
08:48and it's been a first half packed full of action and controversy
08:58and underway then as far rabat of morocco the visiting side three one down at half time
09:04kicking from right to left in this second half and a reminder that away goals do count double
09:11in the event of a draw at the end of two legs and that one goal
09:15as far as picked up in that first half could be vital at the end of the second leg next wednesday
09:24the pyramids torre tries to turn in midfield bumps off one challenge may early
09:30just about keeps possession now the ball out to fatty that he wants to cut inside he wants to
09:36have a pop here fatty he's trying to make room for the shot clawed away by hamiani
09:41oh chibi puts the ball back in the header from may alien he's mistimed it
09:48that one just bounces harmlessly wide now torre
09:53charging forwards here's adele got me only up with it still adele
09:58still adele and he pokes it through for four one
10:02individual brilliance reba him adele his second of the game the pyramids restore their three-goal lead
10:11here
10:28slalomed his way through there maybe got lucky with uh
10:31with one bails off the defender but other than that great close skills
10:41now i'm posing for the photo
10:46torre pop the ball in here defense on the retreat a sound he couldn't put a challenge in
10:53there's nothing picks up the ball here he runs at a salby
10:59and a salby retreats what 20 meters without putting a challenge in
11:12oh
11:17adele is keeping the central defender off balance
11:20i'm in handy there top left of your screen completely unmarked just trying to sneak in
11:25and he said he goes for goal and it's tipped against the crossbar and out for a corner
11:32oh well referee i think got that one wrong it was actually a really good
11:39he's forced all the way to the corner flag
11:43and indeed that is the last of the action then from the 30th of june stadium here in cairo
11:51and certainly we're not expecting that result here today it's finished pyramids four as far
11:59about one in the first leg of this champions league quarterfinal
12:02the former champions caught cold in the opening 12 minutes from a fist of mayaly double
