# Soccer: The Video Assistant Referee came to the rescue for Orlando Pirates, who drew 0-0 with Pyramids FC in the first leg of their CAF Champions League semi-final at the FNB stadium yesterday. Pyramids had the ball in the back of the net on 88 minutes via a deflection from Sodiq Ougola but after a VAR check, the goal was ruled out for a handball. This means no goals were scored in either first legs of the semi-finals. Sundowns and Pirates now travel to Egypt for Friday’s deciding matches.
