Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns played to a 1-1 draw in the first leg of the MTN8 semi-finals at the Orlando Stadium in Soweto on Saturday afternoon.
The Brazilians went to the break leading 1-0 through Teboho Mokoena’s goal after he headed in from Marcelo Allende’s corner in the 35th minute.
Just as the Tshwane giants thought they would take a slender lead to the second leg, the Buccaneers equalised through Kamogelo Sebelebele from a Mbekezeli Mbokazi assist three minutes from time.
