00:00And here we go, Esperance de Tunis taking on Sagrada Esperance, a long ball already to try and
00:10get the ball down to Elias Mokwana. Defense but in the end a little stuttered start makes it
00:19complicated. Agalu, Rodrigo, that's a very good ball behind the defensive wall, it's being picked
00:26up on the right hand side, can he get the delivery over? Oh, it's not a good clearance, the ball's
00:30back over and finally the clearance has been made by Cunha. Well, picked up, great opportunity and
00:40there's four against three here. The ball does come out to the left hand side, Victorino, then
00:45he goes for a shot. Why did he go for a shot there? I don't really understand. Oh, he's a little bit
00:49lucky, the ball's over to the right hand side, still in play possibly. No, it's going to be a
00:54goal kick because of the contact that he made there. A couple of little, that's well cut out
01:03and pounced on as they move forward. Opportunity once again, there's Sebastiao.
01:10Oh, there's a race to get back up. Oh, he's been tripped, that will be a free kick and
01:16Jerry Sese gets the ball back to Kalela. Kalela, there's a good header but it's on target but
01:22not with any fierce fizz about it. Gelasi made sure that he wasn't gonna meet it with
01:29force and velocity. And the first
01:37shot on target for Sagrada Esperanza.
01:42As we approach, nice turn there from that man, Conate. He really is
01:54a very skillful midfielder, isn't he?
01:59Oh, that's Rodrigo with his foot up high, close to Salo Cunha as we see.
02:07Belely, Belely with the right foot pulls it across, there's the shot, it's not bad at all.
02:12Well, well read by Simao, smothers that, saw it coming despite traffic in front and Simao's
02:21grasp and as I said two minutes it was and well at halftime here at the Estadio 11th of November,
02:32Sagrada Esperanza and Esperanza playing out a goalless draw at the end of the first half
02:40of this matchday two with the Total Camp African Champions League.
02:58There's a lot of good things that they'll take from that, they'll want to push a little bit
03:02forward, they'll want to create more scoring opportunities. Sagrada loves so much doing a
03:08pretty good job and starting to improve as they got into the latter stages of the encounter.
03:14The Somalian referee Omar Atan gets the second half underway, Sagrada
03:18in green looking to try and down the big boys from North Africa, Esperanza.
03:27I think that they'll probably just make a few adjustments as they
03:31get into the game but Lely unable to control. I think Antonio Lebo will be a little bit,
03:38he'll be happier with what he's seen so far in the second half by Sagrada.
03:45I mean they've pushed forward, they've given themselves got corners as well,
03:51fighting for the ball as you can see here with this good piece of play, lovely little
03:56turn to get the ball out wide by Victorino. Now let's see what Sebastiao can do, does really
04:02already have it making an impact, Rodrigo picks it up, that's Takar and good work from Anoush,
04:10wins the ball back once again, then Hamida, that's good work and Takar, well that's cover,
04:16great cover there coming from Fernando but he's already looking the real deal, the 21-year-old,
04:22here is the delivery into the penalty box, it's a good delivery as well,
04:26over the top, Simao doesn't come out, there's too many players,
04:30it's been picked up by Anoush, the Nigerian, puts it on his right foot, there's the delivery,
04:34headed away by Shaquille and nice touch there by Mokwana, very fine pass that is
04:45from Jelassie back to Tugay, Takar, Rodrigo does really well and there's the
04:55long ball up towards Mokwana and Anoush just getting in his way as he tried,
05:04here they go again, Belayli lofts it into the penalty box, there are players there,
05:08Tugay gets it up and there's a Simao, oh nice touch, that's beautifully done from Barbosa,
05:14gets the ball out to the right, Sagrada on the attack, seven minutes to go,
05:18just running out of space is Sousa but he does get a free kick for that challenge,
05:25wants to take it quickly, they're on target but the fear factor of a defender coming around and
05:31closing in and getting and beating you and winning the ball back was obviously on his mind,
05:36that's a lovely little touch, Bugheira doing the magic, lofts it over to the left-hand side,
05:40Belayli, oh he's just taking the ball down towards the byline,
05:44nice little touch, there's absolutely nothing there and
05:50referee doesn't react to it either, perfectly done from Sousa
05:56and it's a good ball as well over to that far side, good work from Barbosa,
06:00Bugheira, good work and a very good header there from Barbosa, from Tugay down to
06:11Takah, Belayli's back up on his feet and we've reached the 90 minute mark,
06:23Bugheira, Bugheira gets the ball, half-heartedly across the goal because not on target,
06:30and there's the final, no that's,
06:36the final whistle has been blown, yes it has, Sagrada Esperanza and Esperance, the two Esperances
06:45play out a goalless draw, first point for the Angolan team in Group D, the shaking of the hands
06:54from the two teams and first point for Antonio Lebo Lebo, the final score here in Luanda,
07:01Gini Sagrada Esperanza nil, Esperance Sportive to Tunis nil,
07:10well they take a point, the first point of Group D, which it's a start of course,
07:15match day two, there's still four more games remaining, two more home games, two more games
07:21to play on the road, Esperance had a few scoring opportunities, not too many though was it?
